New "Kahnversations" Podcast with Actor Vikki Kelleher! | | Leaving Saint Paul, Minnesota, Victoria Garcia Kelleher, moved to Los Angeles to follow her passion for acting. In no time, she landed her first guest appearance opposite Jennifer Aniston on the hit NBC show FRIENDS. She didn’t stop there, but became an anomaly, booking only the top shows in the industry. She has worked with such powerhouses as Steven Spielberg, Sally Field, and Patricia Heaton. Sometime during all of this, Vikki managed to marry her college sweetheart and have two wonderful children, but she didn’t settle down. She continued to hone her skills through the ever-challenging craft of improvisation at the renowned ImprovOlympic West, as well as remaining committed to exploring her craft through stage work, studying and teaching with her amazing acting teacher, Lesly Kahn. Most recently, she recurred on GOOD TROUBLE, and is the TV voice for Northwestern Mutual. You can download or subscribe to our podcast for FREE by clicking below.

But their careers feel light years away from ours, don’t they? Wouldn’t it be great to hear from the guy who just booked his first pilot? Or the kid finally doing a studio pic after a bunch of low budget indies? Or the woman who’s been a series regular a few times but is only now becoming a name? What about the guy who’s been on a show for years and you know his face but what’shisnameagain? Or that actress who is now a freakin’ showrunner???? How’d THEY do it, right? How did they transition from relative obscurity, bartending and bottle service, to buying that house in Brentwood? We’re producing “Kahnversations,” a podcast that provides access to THOSE people -- your immediate predecessors -- so that you can learn from them while their battle scars are still fresh. In “Kahnversations,” our own Ryan Bailey interviews some of Lesly Kahn & Company’s working actors, directors, and writers in order to learn how they got started in Hollywood, the challenges and hurdles they faced, and how they overcame the odds. (They also dish out some crazy stories!) Listen in and enjoy as these entertainers speak candidly about their paths, processes, and experiences. You might even hear a bit about how Lesly and the Kahnstitute have influenced and shaped their careers. | | | |
