Born in Buena Vista, Colorado, Aaron Stahlecker grew up in Woodland
Park, Colorado. His parents, Joel Stahlecker, a veterinarian, and Lisa
Stahlecker, an accountant, were always supportive of his love for the
creative side of life, which he expressed through acting and music. In
part due to his Lutheran upbringing, Aaron attended Valparaiso
University in Indiana where he graduated with a bachelor's degree in
Theatre and Television Arts. After graduation, he moved to Chicago
where he found work on set for independent films and commercials.
During this time, he lived with his classmate from Valpo, Mike Green,
and together they began writing the script for an independent film,
Providence. He also began work at the prestigious Stagedoor Manor
performing arts summer camp, which has seen the likes of Natalie
Portman, Zach Braff, and Bryce Dallas Howard pass through it's ranks,
where he teaches filmmaking and directs the students' film shorts. As
of the Fall of 2007, he resides in Northwest Indiana and is developing
upcoming film productions, including an adaptation of the novel Silence
by Japanese author Shusaku Endo
