Sam Hennings

Sam Hennings was born in Macon, Georgia, of German, English and Scotch-Irish ancestry. Deciding in the early 1980s to pursue acting as a full-time profession, he moved to Los Angeles where he studied at the prestigious Beverly Hills Playhouse (for 20 years) with prominent acting teacher, Milton Katselas. In 1984, with encouragement from his teacher, Hennings launched his theatrical stage career, a medium he fell in love with and continues to return to whenever possible. In 1985, Hennings made his professional acting debut on Moonlighting (Pilot) (1985). Over the next few years, he continued to improve his craft through study and stage work and landed several TV guest-starring roles including Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Dallas, Star Trek: The Next Generation and Hunter. In 1989, Hennings had his first break when director Randy Roberts, who had directed the actor earlier in Alfred Hitchcock Presents, invited him to co-star with Louis Gossett Jr. in The Last Plane from Coramaya (1989).
