Does anyone know Michael's middle name? No, but I could ask him in my next new letter to him. |

I wonder if, looking back now, he realized there were clues in his childhood that he wanted to become an actor, such as pretending to be his favorite character in a movie or making up his own skits and what gave him the confidence to perform, starting out?
I also would like to know out of all the characters he's played, which was his favorite and why?
And does he like "Sudoku" and "Scrabble?"

In an interview he realized that his middle name should be creepy  |

So you want me to ask those questions, or will you do them? |

It is usually that way. You do a great job playing a character that is so opposite of your own. |

I also would like to know out of all the characters he's played (theatre, T.V and film), which was his favorite and why? And does he like "Sudoku" and "Scrabble?" So you want me to ask those questions, or will you do them? OMG, you'd ask him? That'd be alright with me because I'd feel too silly asking him myself and it seems he's only willing to answer all the questions in your letters. Thank you so much! I'm trying to remember other questions I wanted to ask him... How was his visit to Spain over the summer? Is he a polyglot? (someone who can speak several languages) Can he speak Spanish and has he been learning Hawaiian? Some parents don't want their children to become actors and say that it is not a real job because it's make-believe. Any advice or what does he have to say to that? |

I'm sorry; I just remember one last question.
What was his favorite subject matter to draw when he was younger? (buildings, landscape, people, ect.)

He illustrated for The Boston Globe and The New York Times.
His artwork doesn't seem to be online, unless it's hidden in a blog somewhere.
I also had drawing classes in high school; I liked drawing inanimate objects or animals, but not people because it was difficult. I didn't think I'd be a good illustrator because their drawings are of characters who are people, mostly, and their artwork turns out exactly as they imagined in their mind, which mine never did.
I thought about majoring in art, but was too scared to send universities slides of my work and thought that since it didn't look like the fantastic drawings (I wasn't good at shading 3 dimensions) or sculptures that I'd seen that I wasn't good at it.
I don't draw anymore because it's a lot of work.

My understanding he was a freelance artist. Likely that means the BG and NYT bought these drawings and own the copyrights to them. These would have predated digital storage and there prolly hasn't been a big demand to see his work. They might have warehoused it or even destroyed it. One would hope not, but I have seen weirder things happen.
