Mike Smith Rivera

I was born a Mexican-American clown in the fine borough of Brooklyn. After graduating from Stuyvesant High School, Syracuse University, and the Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre, I received a P.H.D in street performance, a doctorate in experimental theatre, and a performance grant from the NEA. My incredibly talented wife (kellyanneburns.com) and I have our own production, and we act (stage, screen, and microphone), write, direct, and make films.
