Biography

Nicholas Goroff is an actor, writer and activist and born August 8th, 1983 in Beverly Massachusetts. He grew up primarily in New Hampshire in the towns of Londonderry and Manchester. After high school and a brief stint in the military, he attended college in Manchester where he studied Criminal Justice and Political Science, while working as a security officer and cook. In 2008, after the birth of his daughter, his interest in politics led him to a career as a campaign consultant and field operative for the Political Action Committee (PAC) and Non-Profit sectors, engaging in everything from campaign management to field investigation and policy research. Following one such research project, where he was tasked to improvise various roles and performances in public in order to study reaction, he began dabbling in student and independent film, auditioning for Boston and New York based productions whenever time permitted. For many years he traveled, both professionally as a political consultant and later, a union organizer as well as privately, "vagabonding" his way throughout the north east by way of bus, ride-share and whatever means he could find. It was in 2011 on a trip to New Orleans to see a friend (and fellow actor) that he first thought to try his hand professionally at acting. Since then, he has worked on numerous independent projects throughout New England and New Orleans. Now residing primarily back in New Hampshire full time, he continues to act where time and roles permit while spending the majority of his time writing both fiction and as a journalist.
