Ken Bahn

Ken Bahn (born Kenneth Mark Bhan) was born in Washington, DC, the son of engineer Chander Bhan and writer, Esme Evelyn Bhan. Ken's father is Punjabi, while Ken's mother is a New Delhi native, both are born and raised in India and came to America in the 1970s. Chander Bhan has been recognized in "Who's Who in the World" as well as "Who's Who in the East" and "Men of Achievement" for his engineering achievements in energy savings. His mother, Esme, was selected to be a fellow at Harvard University and is a published writer and archivist. They insisted on him being an engineer due to his perfect math SAT scores, and his ability to fix just about anything. Kenny fixed the transmission on his father's BMW 530i when he was fifteen years old, after his dad said, "If you fix it, you can have it." Kenny would later study mathematics and quantum physics at the United States Naval Academy for three consecutive years prior to studying acting.. Kenny began viewing car control as a mathematical equation, and developed a unique ability to "skid" or "drift" a car, perfectly, around any corner or racetrack by age eighteen. Now going by Ken, he graduated high school and began formal preparation to become a midshipmen and attend the United States Naval Academy (USNA) versus a private university. The United States Naval Academy reported Ken failed his physical examination solely because he wears glasses, and would not be allowed to attend. While his parents were disappointed, Ken was eager to pursue the arts and became an acting major at Howard University and then later received a scholarship to further train (in acting) at Oxford University at Balliol College with the British American Drama Academy (BADA) where his teachers include John Barton, Derek Jacobi, Gary Sinise, Kathleen Turner and Fiona Shaw in Great Britain. Ken later graduated with a BFA in acting and while minoring in directing. Ken joined the Screen Actors Guild, now SAG/AFTRA, with a recurring role on the "Young Americans" on the WB Network. He was featured as a taxi driver on "Sex & the City" giving Sarah Jessica Parker and Bridget Monayan a cab ride in the episode "Running with Scissors" Directed by Dennis Erdman and began his stunt driving career. Ken has acted opposite Kelsey Grammer, Fred Willard and Patricia Heaton directed by James Burrows. Ken worked opposite Tim Roth and Erika Christensen in "Lie to Me" as the Cube Technician in Episode: "The Core of It" Directed by Daniel Sackheim. Ken booked another doctor role in "The Good Doctor" alongside fellow resident doctor, Orlando Bloom directed by Lance Daly which has been accepted into the Tribeca Film Festival. Although Ken only played a doctor, Ken's mom is particularly proud of Ken when he plays a doctor in film and television. Ken's latest commercial features him dancing alongside Robert Downey Jr. which was shot in 2019 at Warner Brothers Studios in Los Angeles. He just wrapped a feature film in 2020, playing a villain role, due out in 2021. Ken loves to entertain and has been performing magic since age twelve. He has been trained by legendary magician, Al Cohen, and has performed in the World Famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. Ken's magic uses the power of quantum physics to blow your mind, with a deck of cards. Ken carries a pack of cards in his wallet wherever he goes and says "Life can be magical, but it's up to you to believe."
