Frederic Vial

Frederic's life began in dirt. Born during an extremely chaotic archaeological dig, Frederic's parents traveled often, with shovels and picks, before settling in San Francisco. Unfortunately, all of this occurred after the California Gold Rush. As an actor, Frederic trained with Sanford Meisner, Martin Barter & Margie Haber. He has had the good-fortune of playing everything from a priest to a murderer, including a recent portrayal of a drug-addicted pharmacist. And yet, despite his immense acting prowess, Frederic's true passion remains in dirt. Once a year, he returns to his Italian roots and where he forged his present-day understanding for family and close friendships in a small Medieval-town in Northern Italy, where he rebuilds stone walls and maintains his grandparent's property and stone hay-barn; now a converted 2-story family home. Currently, Frederic teaches 7th grade World History, venturing out to audition when it feels right.
