James Kirkland

James was born in Portland, Oregon on October 25th, 1980. He attended Boise-Elliot elementary school and Middle school before going to Grant High School.

It was here where young James, (then Jamie) was bitten by the "acting bug." It nearly cost him his life. He pulled through and made movies with his friends, notably, a hour and half James Bond parody called: "BOND." Which only took three years to make.

James then attended Emerson College in Boston, where he studied writing and comedy, as a four year member of the comedy troupe "Jimmys Traveling Allstars." James then moved to LA where he bummed around until finally getting into improv and yoga and getting his life in gear. In 2007 this brought him to Boom Chicago and the rest...is...the present.
