You may know me from my roles in the background of such shows as 'Scarecrow & Mrs. King', 'Airwolf', and 'Emerald Point N.A.S.'!

From 2nd through 11th grade I would occasionally work as a movie and TV 'extra'. This was back when there was a Screen Extras Guild (like the Screen Actors Guild, but without the cool awards show or actual spoken lines). It was awesome. Once every couple months I'd get a call from my agent, Mr. Roscoe, and would get a day or two off school, working in a trailer school on the set and usually spending about 30 minutes in front of an actual camera.

Thanks to the union (err, I mean 'guild'), my sister and I would get paid the same amount as grownups, and sometimes (and I mean *sometimes*) you'd actually see enough of our faces to recognize us.
