Braden Tenney (Nick
Fielding) is from Bozeman, Montana by way of Burlington, Vermont.
As it goes, he found himself in line, found himself onstage, found
himself auditioning for Oklahoma because someone close to him said
he'd never do it. Next thing he knew, he was learning how
to dance, how to sing, and loving what it meant to act. What is
it about becoming other people? Even goofy cowboy people.
California, here we come! But not Los Angeles - not just yet.
Braden studied film and theater at the UC Santa Cruz. Lots of tiny
plays, a handful on the main-stage, a drummer in the band, his senior
thesis film, and a 60-minute monologue in a theater so small you
could reach out and touch his hand.
Next stop, you guessed it -Los Angeles in late 1999 - horror films, student films, a commercial here and there, and welding
up a storm, which is how he pays the rent.
In Fiasco, a short film he produced, he gets worked over by a Mexican
wrestler but eventually gets the girl - kind of. Right now,
he's writing Ben and Ken Kendall and Roy with Two Limps and also working on a another film in Montana with the Pascal Grappard, the director of Fiasco. |
