Bio
Brandt made his acting debut as a munchkin in a grade school performance of The Wizard of Oz. He was six years old and the tallest munchkin on stage (he's now 6'6"). He grew up in Farmington, CT, where he learned to perform not only on the boards, but also on the hardwood. He played basketball in high school and college.
He graduated from Williams College and moved to New York City. He worked as an investment banker, earned his MBA in finance from NYU, and continued to act, appearing in national network commercials.
He then left for Europe, where he played professional basketball in Germany and England. While overseas, he was also able to combine his athletic and acting talents by playing on tour against the Harlem Globetrotters.
He finally returned to New York, now his hometown, and has appeared Off-Broadway and in numerous other theater, film, and television productions. For information about his one-man show, Give and Go: Learning from Losing to the Harlem Globetrotters, please visit www.giveandgotheplay.com.
