Isak Magnuson

Isak "Turtles" Magnuson was born and raised in Gary, Indiana. A difficult child, he found joy in singing with his friends, and grew as an artist with the support of his vocal coach, his choir, and his four sisters. Magnuson exceeded in academics, though he had troubles reading historic fiction because, as he recalls, he "had trouble confusing the history with the now times." Magnuson stars in major theatric productions regularly, though "A Light Beneath Their Feet," marked his venture into film. He was recognized by the Falcon Academy for Keynote Educators in 2013.
