About Cliff
In early his stage career in Virginia, Cliff assayed such roles as ‘The Common Man’ (A Man for All Seasons), ‘John Proctor’ (The Crucible), ‘Lieutenant Shrank’ (West Side Story), ‘Montano’ (Othello), and ‘Oliver’ (Da).
After three decades away from acting, he took roles in St. Louis, Missouri productions of Spoon River Anthology and Hot L Baltimore. He also originated the role of ‘Jacob Marr’ in First Run Theatre’s premier of Brooklyn Bagatelle, as well as 'Shamus Malloy' in their production of the Irish comedy, The Predicament.
Currently, he is focused on film, commercial and voiceover work. He has starred in dramas such as Aaron Landgraf's Richie and the Styles, Richard Louis Ulrich's Steve, and in Don Callahan's Supermen: World War, and did work on the Boom! Studios / 20th Century Fox production of The Empty Man. His commercial work includes spots for Spectracide, SSM Health, Mercy Healthcare and Aqua Pearls.
A graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University, Cliff has at turns been a journalist, videographer, private investigator, public relations specialist, employment counselor and infantry officer.
As he has often said, “Happy to be here. Proud to serve.”
