Steve Gluck

Steve Gluck left Brooklyn in 1974 at the age of 22, traveling to Berkeley California where he lived for the next 30 years. After his divorce from child-prodigy violinist Elisa Claudio in 1983, he studied acting under Larry Menkin, creator of the Captain Video TV Series, in San Rafael, California, the Jean Shelton School of Acting in San Francisco, and other Method Schools in California. He was accepted as a member of the Screen Actors Guild in 1990, based on his costarring performance opposite Linda Blair, Troy Donohue and Dan Haggerty in The Chilling (1989). Shortly thereafter, he put his acting career on hold to focus on his career in design and construction. He also trained with professional fighters under the guidance of boxing-trainers Jimmy Simmons and Rio Rosa in the 1980s and 90s.

Steve later developed an interest in Africa and spent many years traveling to and from Africa studying its wildlife, cultures and peoples before returning to academia at Harvard in 2006. He is an authority on the conservation of African wildlife and has spoken on this subject at a number of world-conferences, as well as at Harvard.

After receiving his degree from Harvard, he reinstated his SAG/AFTRA card and began studying acting again at the Media Performance Institute (Boston Casting) and The Hartford Stage. Aside from SAG/AFTRA, Steve holds memberships in MENSA and Harvardwood (Harvard Alumni in the Arts, Media and Entertainment). He is currently seeking representation in New York City and Boston.
