FROM STAGE TO SCREEN

Can you make a transition from performing on stage to television or even to movies?

Hill Harper


Yes!


Consider Hill Harper; author, actor and activist.

While in college he was a member of the Boston's Black Folk's Theater Company, one of the oldest and most acclaimed black theater troupes in the country. Harper's stage credits include appearances in off-Broadway productions of Your Handsome Captain, Freeman, and David Mamet's American Buffalo. He completed a starring run of Jessica Hagedorn's Dogeaters at New York's Joseph Papp Public Theatre.

Currently you can see him in his best-known role to date as a coroner-turned-crime-scene-investigator, Sheldon Hawkes, on the American TV show "CSI:NY", the second spin-off from the very successful "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" franchise.
