Biographie

Andrew Bowen was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and raised in Vermont. At the age of six, after watching the movie Grease, he announced to his parents that he wanted to be "like John Travolta when I grow up". His mother quickly enrolled him in dance class and a year later he performed as the lead in his first play, Once Upon a Rhyme. He continued studying modern jazz and ballet for eight years and was involved in local theater throughout high school.

During the summer following his high school graduation, Bowen acquired an agent in New York City, then moved to Los Angeles. His first film role was as Kathryn Erbe's love interest in the film What About Bob?. He received a letter from director Frank Oz before the film's release informing him that his role had ended up on the cutting room floor. Over the next few years Bowen worked in part-time jobs, such as commercials and small roles in TV, while also taking part-time screen-writing courses at the University of Southern California.

A father of three, comedy presence on Vine and devoted family man (whose son Seth Lucas Bowen is following in his tracks soon to be seen on CBS's new show Bad Teacher), Bowen's high standards, wit, talent and ability to bring out the creative best in people have resulted in a large and growing fan base eager to support his career as creative force, an inventive character Actor and chameleon like Leading Man.
