Playwrights, Composers, Lyricists and Authors

Matt Steele is a Los Angeles-based actor and writer who has been performing from a very early age.

He began acting in a self-constructed theatre he built in his basement. For years, he and his older brother, performed, directed, and designed high-quality productions — at least as high quality as theatre can be with no budget, two actors, and curtains made from bedsheets.

Matt performed with community theatre companies and in his high school plays before attending New York University as a Drama major at the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts.  There, he studied musical theatre under CAP21 and acting for the screen with Stonestreet Studios.

Since graduation, Matt's acting work has been seen on screens, both large and small, and he has performed in theaters across the US, ranging from the grand Town Hall in NYC to the most intimate of performing spaces.  He recently garnered international media acclaim for his original web series, "The Doomsday Diaries," for which he was reviewed in various publications and social media outlets, including The Huffington Post and the Village Voice.

His performances in his school plays, however, will always remain his favorite memories as an actor.  It's these memories that have given him a passion for writing for young performers.
