About Kelly

Kelly arrived in LA in September, 1982 with his "car his clothes and his stereo" after winning the men's photography competition at the ITMSA convention in NYC. He signed with Wilhelmina West and ended up getting his SAG card doing a Gillette commercial directed by Joe Pytka. Kelly met Mr. Sanford Meisner in spring 1992 and became a Founding Member of the Sanford Meisner Center for the Arts in Spring, 1995. He starred in several dozen plays there and wrote/directed several others (1995-2005). Kelly was cast by Oscar nominated writer/director Lynn Mamet as the lead "Bobby Fry" in her world premiere of "The Job". He was also cast by writer/director Larry Cohen to play Charles Lindbergh in his world premiere of "Fallen Eagle" (from a screenplay he co-developed with Oliver Stone). The Sanford Meisner Center for the Arts was Kelly's second home up until its closing in 2005. Mr. Nelson most recently appeared in the sit com pilot "Thank You Come Again", written/directed by Chelsea Steiner as well as in David Collins's 2019 sit com pilot "To Die For". A proud family man and father of three, Kelly enjoys his Sunday nights singing karaoke at The Belmont. You can find Kelly on Twitter @MeisnerActor. -"A pure talent, just cast him, he can do anything." - Lynn Mamet -"A leading man who can really act." - Larry Cohen -"You mad me cry. Bravo! Excellent" - Jay Bernstein -"A sensitive actor, you can't teach that." - Sanford Meisner -"A treat to watch, powerful and multi-layered with strong thoughtful choices. Bravo!" - Billy DaMotta - - Follow me on Twitter @MeisnerActor - -
