Trevor Boelter
Trevor has been active member of the Sanford Meisner Center since graduating from the two year program in 2001. Since then, he has played on the SMC stage in The Day They Shot John Lennon, The Vet, and most recently as the Albino Waiter, in Modigliani. After college, Trevor came to Los Angeles with a BA in English, and not a clue in how to get started. Thanks to the two year program, Hapkido and the Screenwriting Class ALL offered by the SMC, Trevor has found the right path to walk, and a realistic vision for his future. Not working on any particular time limit, Trevor has decided to live as an artist, rather than wish for a million dollar contract, and movie star status. Trevor is what he is: a quirky, energetic persona that is capable of finding laughs when nothing needs to be said. Other than that, he's a Beatles Freak, budding screenwriter, and experienced comedic improviser. If you can stump him with Beatles Trivia, he will give you five
dollars.
