I was born in Hamilton, OH Nov. 19, 1964. I'm the oldest of eight children. My family moved to Farmington, NM when I was 13. I served in the U.S. Army, I was a Deputy Sheriff, where I worked three years as a patrolman and two years undercover narcotics. When I got the chance to work undercover, I thought a theater class would help me with the role play necessary to be successful in my job. I fell in love with the theater and acting. A few years later, I began studying film making and found my true calling. I love everything about film and television. I've been more successful than I ever imagined as an actor, and began writing to remain creative between acting jobs. I've written numerous feature scripts, TV pilots, sketch comedy shows and even a comic book. Everyday of my life is an adventure, and I'm enjoying the ride.

Hi TVWriter fans.  Since my very good friend Larry Brody asked me to become a contributor here, I thought it was about time I got off my ass and did so.

So, I’ll begin with a little introduction and brief bio of who I am and how I got here.

My name’s Chriss Anglin, and as much as I know it will annoy all you genius writers, I am an actor first and foremost.  About 15 years ago, I was a small town deputy sheriff in New Mexico.  When I was offered the opportunity to work undercover narcotics, I thought that taking a theater class might help me with the job.  It did, but I also got hooked on acting, being the natural ham I am.  About 12 years ago, a buddy I had done theater with, came back from LA after attempting to make in movies and talked me into his “Acting for Film” class.  It sounded fun, so I did it.  That was it.  I fell in love with making movies. read article
