Chris Begley(IV)
- Actor
Chris Begley began his career performing in national touring rock music acts and film festivals.
He was born in San Jose, California, the son of Maria (Pires), a factory worker, and Jack Begley, a country musician and later refinery foreman. Chris's father is of Scottish/Dutch ancestry, while Chris's mother is of Portugese decent, being born on the island of Faial, Portugal. His family moved to the suburban area of Vacaville, Ca when Chris was 13 where he was quickly drawn to music, being a natural and quick learner of guitar, drums and bass. It was in high school when Chris first fell in love with acting and storytelling, taking classes in mass media, photography and art.
Once out of high school, Chris began a career as a touring musician, spending months out of the year on the road as a member of pop/rock band Fight Fair (Triple Crown Records). After 4 years of touring and playing major festivals (Van's Warped Tour, Bamboozle), Chris desired to pursue a career in acting and film. He began working local circuits in San Francisco and Sacramento, taking background and lead work in short films.
Chris's charisma and ability to adapt make him a fresh face and someone to watch out for.
