Thirty year acting veteran John D’Aquino (Cory in the House, Seinfeld, Hannah Montana, CSI) has starred in six television series, recurred on many popular shows and guest starred on dozens more. John’s love for performing is only surpassed by his love for teaching, a love inspired by his mentor, teacher and friend, Charles Nelson Riley. Charles, a master teacher of great renown, instilled in all his students a passion for teaching and a commitment to helping actors create dynamic performances by reaching deeper into the canvas of the human spirit. John attributes any success he has enjoyed in Hollywood to Charles and now travels the country dedicated to passing on the lessons and passion his treasured teacher gave to him. |
