Richard Muller ’13
B.A. Theatre; B.F.A. Graphic Design, has been living in Los Angeles for a year and a half now. His main pursuit in the arts is acting. He has performed in some short films, commercials, indie films, music videos, and this past Dec., he starred in his first Hollywood staged performance as the role of Jason in the musical Bare. He has been keeping up with his graphic design and art by doing it for fun and freelance work when it fits in his busy schedule. He has also taken advantage of being in a city full of artistic opportunity by getting into improv, modeling, photography, and cinematography! Most recently, Richard had the opportunity to be the cinematographer for a short film his friend Joseph Marquez produced and directed called “My Way”. This project was worked on by a very talented group of individuals in association with the Screen Actors Guild.
