Michael McLafferty
- Actor

- Transportation Department
Michael was raised in Oahu, Hawaii, until the age of 7; he then lived
in Englewood, Colorado, and moved to southern Maine when he was 13.
After graduating from Marshwood H.S. in Eliot, Maine, an Academic
All-American, he attended the United States Merchant Marine Academy in
Kings Point, New York. He studied engineering, played football, ran
track, and explored Manhattan every chance he got. Fashion photographer
Bruce Weber discovered Michael and used him
in multiple shoots for Ralph Lauren. It was
at the first shoot in Miami where Michael chose the road less traveled
and he has been acting ever since. He got his first acting coach,
Geoffrey Horne, from a chance meeting
with Mickey Rourke in Miami the day he
resigned from school. He took Mickey's advice; he has continued to
study acting and will forever be researching the human experience.
