The second player was Pascual Martinez... Talk about a success story =
there.
He was classmate of mine at USC. Took the Cincinnati audition and made =
the
group after starting behind the screen in the first round. From there, =
he
went to New York. He's one of those players that in studio class was
consistently so amazing, you'd almost want to quit. He is also an
incredibly nice guy, too...
