What’d You Think?

Blake Lewis, Writer

Blake has been a supporter of A Light in Dark Places from the start. He has written multiple plays for ALIDP and serves on the Board of Directors.

Chris Millar, Director

A native Texan, Chris spent two decades in Los Angeles where he squeezed in writing, directing, acting, and started a successful business. In LA, Chris studied acting under Rick Podell, Chick Vennera, and Milton Katselas at the Beverly Hills Playhouse, and improv at Improv Olympic West (IO West). While in LA Chris also wrote and directed his first short film which appeared in USA Film Festival’s 30thNational Short Film competition.

Chris is excited to once again be based in Dallas where he can get involved in the rapidly growing arts scene. When not creating, he is most likely expanding his technology business or obsessing over his next endurance kart race.
