Hi… my name is Jim McGuire.  Welcome to my website.

I earned an MA in theatre from Hunter College in 1996.   At Hunter I learned about acting theory and philosophy and how to become a performer.   We learned how to relax by using theatre games and sensory exploration of the 5 senses.  I also studied storytelling, an art form that builds an actor’s poise and verbal skills.

I have been collaborating with filmmaker Chris Casaburi, playing the lead role in several short films, winning recognition from peers in film festivals in NYC and Philadelphia.  We developed a character Fr. McGuire a parish priest who helps others in trouble.  Our photo series “The God Business” further explores Fr. McGuire’s world in the beautiful Hudson Valley where I live 50 miles north of Manhattan.

I am currently looking for new adventures and roles… please tell your casting agent and producer friends!!

Thanks for your support. -Jim
