Matthew is an L.A. native who obsessed over the family’s Thomas Guide and snuck into backlots as a kid with his dad, mesmerized by all the people it took to make the magic happen. L.A. theater credits include notable runs at Theatre of NOTE (Fruition, 365 Days/365 Plays) and the Black Dahlia Theatre (A Terminal Degree), as well as productions at Working Stage (We Got Lucky) and El Centro Theatre (Dudes Do Stuff). On screen, he has appeared in We Got Lucky, False Colors, Cold Feet, Bad, Bad Men, and the upcoming feature Baby Come Home. He plays a Taylor these days, but his mama taught him his first chords on her Takamine.
