Craig was born in Des Moines, IA. and moved to Rock Island, IL. at the
age of five. From an early age Craig knew he wanted to entertain
people, he took acting, dance and voice classes locally where he did
shows with them at various local theaters. In high school Craig found
his voice in plays, musicals, show choir, madrigal, and drama club.
In college, Craig studied theater, directed one act plays and did local
and semi-professional theater. He had his first paid job with Circa '21
Speakeasy's murder mystery dinner's in Rock Island.
Craig decided pursuing the dream was in order. After moving to LA,
Craig soon realized Hollywood can be cutthroat and when those that
don't follow their dreams discourage others, it took a toll and he gave
up the dream of being an actor and left L.A..
After time away, Craig had a plan, he came back to L.A, to attend Los
Angeles Film School, majoring in Directing and minoring in
Cinematography. Armed with a hands on education Craig worked on feature
films as a PA, cast short films and a indie feature. Craig formed his
own Casting Company, Circle of Light Casting and his own Production
Company, Circle of Light Productions, telling stories from a gay
perspective.
