Acting

My first play was at age 11. I acted in professional theaters in Minneapolis throughout my youth, moved to Washington, DC where I went to the Duke Ellington School of the Arts. I then earned a BFA at the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama. I have been a successful voice actor for more than 20 years. 
After raising kids and focusing on writing, directing, editing, and filmmaking, I have returned to acting. 

Returning to acting at this point in my life, I have more to offer than ever. Let's do this!

HANK JACOBS ACTING RESUME-1_24.png

"Gliding" from RAGTIME - Hank Jacobs as Tateh 
5-Star Theatricals, Jeffrey Polk, director

Gliding is a beautiful song from the end of act 1 of Ragtime. Immigrant father Tateh and his daughter (Lila Dunham) escape another bad situation, but he works to stay positive.

In 6 minutes, Tateh gets a rough tour of the nightmarish immigrant experience of the Lower East Side of NYC in the early 20th Century

LOSER: THE UNSEEN VIDEO DIARY OF DEAN BARRY

LOSER is a vertical web series I made for the now-defunct Pocketflix. It's about a man-child obsessed with getting his phone repaired after his boss breaks it while firing him. He live streams the whole thing to exactly zero viewers. Watch the whole series here.
