Michael Elkington

Michael Elkington was born in England, and after being dragged by his artist mother and adventurous engineer father through an early education of Argentinean Spanish, and Liverpool English, he cleared high school in South African Afrikaans. A love of drama in high school gave way to the practicalities of life, but when college attempts in accountancy and forestry fell by the wayside, Michael took off to travel the world in search of his illusive career. Safari guiding, oil drilling in frozen seas, charter sailing in glamorous destinations, wild white water rafting, salvage diving, bartending and taxi driving in between, led Michael to the USA where he found his home and the heart of his passion. For the past ten years Michael has worked as actor and screenwriter in Los Angeles.
