I do not look like either Gary Cooper or Marcello Mastroianni but that is not my fault. Nor do I smoke or condone smoking as sexy.
Give me German Expressionism!
This is written in the third person like it was written by someone other than myself, who is actually the person who wrote it.
Luke DeLalio (me) has reinvented himself many times during his artistic career. He started out as a musician and then gradually moved into audio recording. As a recording producer/engineer, he spend the majority of his twenties and early thirties making rock and jazz albums for major and independent record labels, and touring as a live sound engineer in the United States and in Europe,
In 1997 Mr. DeLalio started stage directing regionally and off-Broadway (his undergraduate degree is in Theatre from Purdue University). He founded an accredited BFA Theatre program at a college on Long Island, has taught acting and directing and maintains a private theatre coaching practice in which he specializes in auditioning technique and improvisation.
As an adjunct to his work in the theatre, Mr. DeLalio started photographing actors' headshots and live theatre, dance and music performances. He is much in demand for this specialized type of photography, and his work has appeared in The New York Times, Playbill, Time Out NY, etc.
Mr. DeLalio is in the MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts program at Goddard College in Vermont. His painting and fine art work is part of his degree pursuit, and a natural progression from his photography and theatre design work.
He lives with his wife, operatic soprano Tammy Hensrud and their two children.
