Brian O'Hara(IX)

Brian is a bit of a late bloomer to the acting profession. He met Writer/Director Kevin Hill on a flight from New York to Los Angeles in 2004. Kevin told Brian that he had written a film titled "A Parking Space", and that he was perfect for the lead role. Brian had no previous acting experience. After much coaxing from Kevin, Brian decided to give it a try, and took the part. He met Emmy nominated Cinematographer, Cira Felina Bolla on that film, and has since been cast in five of her films, in both lead and supporting roles. Brian has a supporting role in "Life of Lemon", written by, and starring fellow Bostonian, Barry Kneller. The film also stars Dan Lauria, Beth Grant, Mimi Kennedy and Rachel Miner. The independent film is set to premier in early 2011. He has studied at Carter Thor Studio with well known acting coach, Jock MacDonald. Brian feels that he comes by his love for acting quite naturally. His father, Wally O'Hara, who is now retired, was a well known radio personality and actor in Boston for over fifty years. Brian enjoys playing both comedic and dramatic roles. His strong Irish look gets him cast as police officers, detectives and priests quite often. He has definitely been bitten by the acting bug, and continues to audition and take roles in independent films. He looks forward to whatever acting opportunities lie ahead.
