G.R. attended Oberlin College, studying Theater and English Literature with a focus on Shakespearean and Jacobean Drama, as well as the Modern American Novel.
After graduating from Oberlin, G.R. was accepted into the professional actor training program at Temple University in Philadelphia, where he studied Fitzmaurice Voicework®, dialects, text analysis, stage combat, period movement, and performance. While at Temple, he spent a summer at the Williamstown Theater Festival performing in the Act One Company.
After receiving his M.F.A., G.R. was cast in his professional debut by Broadway casting director Jay Binder at the Huntington Theatre Company, a major regional theater in Boston, where G.R. played Otto von Aigner in Tom Stoppard's Undiscovered Country. He also appeared in the sold-out, New York premiere of Stoppard's Indian Ink with Sendhil Ramamurthy (NBC’s Heroes).
Upon arriving in New York City, G.R. began working at regional theaters such as the Alabama Shakespeare Festival (with Michael Emerson of ABC’s Lost), The Wilma Theater in Philadelphia, the Fulton Theatre in Pennsylvania, and many others. G.R. also had the honor of acting with Oscar-winner Kim Hunter and her husband, Robert Emmett, in The Visit.
Other New York theater credits include La MaMa E.T.C., Mint Theater Company, the NY International Fringe Festival, among others. Additionally, he has workshopped plays at Ensemble Studio Theater and the New York Theater Workshop, as well as the first workshop of Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde, directed by Moises Kaufman (HBO's The Laramie Project).
On film, G.R. can be seen in several independent films such as Over the GW (Slamdance Film Festival), Aaron Bacon (Shanghai International Film Festival), Laser To The Angels, and Tom Comes Over To Visit. He also got his leg bitten off by a half-man, half-shark named Paul in the SyFy Channel's SharkMan (with William Forsythe of HBO's Boardwalk Empire).
