Jon started acting early - he fondly remembers performing at the Pacific Yearly Meeting of Friends while growing up in a Quaker family. Jon has performed Shakespeare in Hungary and Kafka in Slovakia, taught drama in Tennessee, Washington, and California, directed theater productions at the Willows Theater camp (“Les Miserables”, “Urinetown”, “Bat Boy”), and performed locally at La Luna Theatre. Along with his work here at SFFS, Jon teaches Improvisation, Middle School Performance Ensemble and Play Creation at the Berkeley Rep School of Theater. He lives in El Cerrito with his partner, Rebecca, and their eight-year-old son, Leo.
