Brief History: Austin Actors (AustinActors.net) was created in 2000 by Brad Koester. The entity started as both a social mixer and website, a network for talented writers, directors, producers, cast and crew, in and around Austin. A detailed history from a 2004 article gives the more complete story. Do you recognize any of these people? This is from the year 2000 or 2001, at one of the monthly screenings/mixers. Does any of this look familiar? Photos by Jerry Delony. |
