EVIN MILLAN was born and raised in an international household, with immigrant parents of Croatian, Indian, French, and Austrian heritage, in the heartland of America, St. Louis, Missouri. He began his career in the entertainment industry at 4 years old when he began playing the violin and piano. After making his stage debut as
'Donald Duck' in a grade school play, the seeds to his dreams and aspirations were planted. His passion for music grew at the
John Burroughs High School (also the alma mater of "Mad Men"'s
Jon Hamm, "The Office"'s
Ellie Kemper, and "24"'s
Sarah Clarke) where he sang in the choir and learned to play the guitar and drums, starting a rock band shortly thereafter.
He continued his music and acting through college at the
University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL, where he earned a bachelor‘s degree as well as two master‘s degrees, including an MBA and Master's in Industrial Engineering. This is when his love for theatre, Shakespeare, and stage performing blossomed and he began to professionally hone his craft as an actor.
After a six month sojourn in Paris where he spent much time in a myriad of museums appreciating masterpices of art and experiencing the diverse cultures Europe has to offer, he moved to Los Angeles and began his two year Meisner training at the
Joanne Baron / D.W. Brown Studio, followed by a summer of vocal, classical, and Shakespeare training with
Patsy Rodenburg (formerly from the
RSC).
Nevin currently resides in Los Angeles to pursue his
acting,
writing, and
music careers full time. He has appeared on several television shows, as well as feature films and stage productions. Most recently starring in the epic historical drama
“DIDGORI: Land of Sacrificed Knights” which he also co-wrote and co-produced appearing as 'Hugo De Payens', the founder of the Templar Knights. He also stars in the History Channel series
“Battles B.C.“ as Pharaoh Ramesses where his sword fighting skills are displayed. In 2006, the short film
"Balance" that he produced and starred in, screened at the
Los Angeles Short Film Festival. In 2007, the short film
"In Another Time", which he produced, adapted, and starred in, screened at the
Palm Springs Short Film Festival and the
Los Angeles Short Film Festival to rave reviews.
He is currently working on several screenplays and has recently shot supporting roles in two independent films. He also has several films slated for production later this year. In addition, he is working on a demo of his
music, which he plans to finish this summer.
Nevin is a multi-faceted artist. His exotic look allows him to be cast across the board ethnically, which his exceptional talent for languages and accents facilitates. His intense passion, perseverance, professionalism, pursuit of knowledge and deep love of the arts, as well as his scholastic intelligence make him one of the most versatile artists in the entertainment industry.
