Dyrk ashton biography sampler: Paternus: Rise of Gods, is Dyrk

Dyrk was born in Athens Ohio, not Greece , on Halloween. He was shortly thereafter carted to Hampton, Virginia, which he doesn't remember in the least, where his father had a job working as an electrical engineer in the Navy yards. Then it was to the idyllic ravines, apple orchards and blackberry patches of Chagrin Falls, OH, where he actually got a pony when he was five years old -- an ornery Shetland named Jasper who had a penchant for beer and stepping on feet.

Jasper was also five. Damned thing lived to be After first grade, it was off to the farm country of NW Ohio, south of Toledo, where his parents still reside today. There Dyrk whiled away his adolescent years in cornfields, woods, rivers, ditches and haymows, climbing trees, running along barn beams, riding, wrestling, soccering, fighting BB gun wars, reading Stuart Little, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, everything Verne, London, Kipling, White, Lewis, Doyle, Burroughs, Poe, Howard, Fleming, Lovecraft, Tolkien, Zelazny, and generally ignoring school -- though he somehow managed excellent grades except in Algebra, of course.

At the age of 16 he traded a horse for his first car really , a Volkswagen Beetle, which he proceeded to wrap around a telephone pole on the way to a high school soccer game within the year. All survived, and it was time for college. College gave way to working in film production in Columbus, OH professionally, mind you , clawing his way up from production assistant to grip then production manager and producer for commercials, industrial films and low budget features.

And if you have seen it, he was probably in it so briefly you missed him. It can be done, acting professionally, even if you have no talent but are good at auditioning and have a look that very few actors and no regular folks can pull off.
