Hi everyone! My name is Christian Lyon and I just joined stage 32. After living in CA for 30 years my family and I moved to AZ. I’ve acted in indies, shorts, music videos, a studio feature and co or guest starred on numerous tv shows, including Shameless, 9-1-1, How To Get Away With Murder and Animal Kingdom to name a few. I had my pilot optioned last year (which was nice and provided a chunk of $$) but it just expired and we’re reaching out to new production companies. I also have a documentary I’ve been working on for which seems like forever but I’m determined to finish it this year. I’d love to network with any of you here so hit me up. Cheers!

Thanks Casey and Maurice! Casey, in the late 1940’s my grandfather discovered a cave. In 1965 a young man perished in it while exploring. It set off a national rescue attempt but they did not get his body out. 41 years later I organized and led a team in, including the victim’s brother, to finally recover his remains. That fall his 91 year old father finally got to scatter his son’s ashes.

Welcome, Christian Lyon! I'm a novelist and comic book writer in Gilbert, AZ. I've had a couple of things optioned but nothing had made it to the screen yet. In addition to my original books in multiple genres, I've also written tie-in novels based on properties like Narcos, NCIS, CSI, Star Trek, Buffy and Angel, 30 Days of Night, Spider-Man, etc. Good to see another Arizonan here.

Thanks Solange and Jeffrey! Solange, agreed and that was the main word everyone would say when hearing this story: closure. I’m in Tempe Jeffrey, hopefully our paths will cross!

Christian Lyon, I wrote a novel last year with Emmy-winning writer/producer Peter Murrieta, who at the time was resident director of the Sidney Poitier New American Film School at ASU. Tempe has a great film community. Enjoy!
