Paul Purvine is a New York based actor and director. He is a graduate of The Evergreen State College and holds a Bachelor of Arts with an emphasis in Theater and Education. While attending TESC, his senior thesis directing project inspired the student organization Evergreen Shakespeare Society to form.
One of Paul’s passions is teaching. He has lead classes and directed theater at Creative Theater Experience – a nonprofit children’s summer program – for over a decade. He was also a substitute teacher for the North Thurston Public School District before relocating to the East Coast.
An avid YouTube user and content creator, his guerrilla film work includes collaborations with Media Coast to Coast, Real Talk Academy Productions, as well as personal blogs.

If he had to name a favorite beer, it would be McMenamin’s Terminator Stout.
