Christopher A. Dinnan was born the youngest of four children in a
blue-collar home near Flint, MI. As a child, his natural curiosity and
intellect led him to dreams of being an inventor. After graduating near
the top of his class at Clio High, Chris, then bored with school, did
not fully pursue his further education until 4yrs later. Chris enrolled
in the prestigious Kettering University, then known as GMI, majoring in
Applied Physics with a minor in Optics, Acoustics and Business
Management. Financial hardships and an inability to find an internship
forced him to leave school a year later.
Christopher's performing career began when he was 10yrs old, though not in acting. After considering several instruments, including drums and saxophone, Chris took a liking to the trumpet, performing in both the school orchestra and marching band, and becoming section leader his junior and senior years. In addition, Chris traveled America performing with the Northern Aurora Drum and Bugle Corp from Saginaw, MI for the summers of '90 and '91. At the Drum Corps International Finals of 1991, in Madison, WI, Northern Aurora placed 2nd in division 2 and 24th in overall competition, landing them on the official box-set of DCI Finals'91.
Christopher's acting career began as an extra on the film All's Faire In Love. Brad Leo Lyon and his minor league football team The Genesee County Patriots (NAFL) were contacted to fill an opening scene with Owen Benjamin as a college quarterback, and Chris, along with several of his teammates, were happy to oblige. Chris reprized his role as "football player" in the film Minor League: A Football Story written and staring his close friend Brad Leo Lyon. Chris has since gone on to act in other projects including Beach Vacancy (which he was also a producer) and stage plays like Earl the Vampire by Sean Michael Welch.
