Craig Lee Thomas

Craig is best known for his recurring role as Elvis Yeager on the CW hit 'Jane the Virgin'. Craig grew up in a small town outside of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, and graduated from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, where he studied at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting. During summers of college, he was a company member at the Tony award-winning Utah Shakespearean Festival, appearing in 8 productions over 3 seasons (and was also the Festival's youngest Fight Captain at age 20). Craig remained in New York City for a year after college, appearing in numerous off-off-Broadway world premieres, including David Ian Lee's 'Sleeper' and Colin McKenna's 'Parking Lot, Lonely Heart', which scored him a rave review in the New York Times. After moving to Los Angeles in 2009, Craig co-founded the sketch comedy group Pursued By Bear with fellow NYU alumni Lisa J Dooley and Kelly Landry. Their videos have over 100,000 views online on websites like Cracked.com, Jest.com, and Funny or Die,
