Mitchell Musolino
- Actor
Born on August 23rd, 1991, in Washington Pennsylvania, Mitchell grew up
without a father, with a working class mother who had to be the "do it
all mom." Mitchell's upbringing wasn't the most stable, one could say,
as he never lived in one place for very long. He learned how to cope
with "life on the road." When Mitchell was six he, and his mom had
already moved eight times; it was then that he developed a passion for
acting. Having moved so often, he was never able to make friends very
easily, and had to resort to watching movies for entertainment, but
luckily drew acting inspiration from these. His mother was unsure of
how to go about starting him into the acting industry, so it wasn't
talked about much. Finally, when Mitchell entered his junior year in
high school, he attended Chartiers-Houston High School in Houston,
Pennsylvania, where met his English teacher, Kim Carnahan, (whom he
refers to as "Mom"), who taught him everything about Shakespeare and
his many plays and use of language. Macbeth was Mitchell's favorite, so
for a class project, he performed a sword fighting skit with his buddy.
During this skit, he rekindled his passion for the arts. After high
school, he began working full time to help his mother with the bills.
Always devoting his time to his work rather than his acting, he seemed
to be falling further away from his dreams, until one day he was
noticed by a modeling and talent agency that took him in, where he was
able to train with his current instructor Gwendolyn Kiste. In 2013, Mitchell was cast as the lead character in the Halloween horror film The Barn (2015) directed by Justin Seaman, who has become a very close friend to Mitchell.
