Michael Kishon

Michael immigrated to New York from Israel when he was five years old. When he was six, his parents placed him in an acting class to help him gain a little confidence and get a better grasp on his English. Unfortunately for them, he liked it. Growing up, Michael balanced acting with other activities such as basketball, becoming an all-star for his eighth grade Yeshiva League team (ask him about it, he'll tell you how good he was.) He recently acquired his BFA in Drama from NYU Tisch, training at the Lee Strasberg Institute. He has performed in various theatrical productions including "No Shade," a new work by Broadway actor Reynaldo Piniella, and "Sprawl," which premiered Off-Broadway at the Soho Playhouse. He can be seen in Wuhan Driver, the award winning short film directed by Tiger Ji (Death & Ramen,) Bones (dir. Noah Mezaccapa,) Two Story House (dir. Devin Lee,) Mandatory Leave (dir. Michelle Lee,) and I'll Never Forget my High School Friends (dir. Sam Ashurov and Raza Rizvi,) available on Amazon Prime. His upcoming films include Line of Fire directed by Weston Porter and featuring Cathy Moriarty (Raging Bull.) Since graduating, Michael's films have premiered at the Nashville Film Festival, The New York and Toronto Shorts International Film Festival, and the Barcelona Indie Filmmakers Festival, amongst others.
