Michael Ursu
Also known as "Maku" to his close friends, Michael-Alexander Kyle Ursu is a SAG-E actor, musician/composer, and voice actor. Born and raised in Queens, New York, he graduated with a B.A. in Music from Occidental College and was inspired by former bandmates to pick up acting while playing shows in Los Angeles. Michael was praised for his raw talent and potential by close industry friends and decided to switch focus from composing shorts and commercials to starring in film and TV. His background in music has helped him secure roles in musical productions, having been cast in musicals as talent and music director, and even starring in an Elton John VR promo playing bass. A jack of all trades, he also does sound design and writes under the stage name "Maku", being likened to artists like Jack Johnson and John Mayer. Known for giving it his all, Michael is not one to back down from a challenging role. He's played musicians, bartenders, stoners, 70s slackers, boyfriends, writers, dealers, indie directors, futuristic time cops, and soldiers; a truly versatile kind of actor.

Michael V. Gazzo
Michael Vincente Gazzo was born in Hillside, New Jersey, on April 5, 1923. He attended Erwin Piscator's Dramatic Workshop at the New School on the GI Bill after being demobilized from the US Army Air Force after World War II. Gazzo's first major success was as a playwright. His play about drug addiction, "A Hatful of Rain," was a success on Broadway, running for 389 performances in 1955 and 1956 and winning Ben Gazzara and Anthony Franciosa Tony award nominations as Best Actor and Best Featured Actor, respectively. However, his second (and what would prove to be his last) Broadway play, "The Night Circus," also starring Gazzara, was a flop, lasting just 7 performances in 1958, "A Hatful of Rain" was made into a successful film by Oscar-winning director Fred Zinnemann in 1957. Franciosa won an Oscar nomination for reprising his role in the film. Gazzo turned to screenwriting, penning the Elvis Presley hoses-opera King Creole (1958). Eventually he turned back to acting, where his stocky physique and unique screech of a voice made him a first-rate character actor by the 1970s. His biggest and best acting gig came to him when Richard S. Castellano refused to appear in The Godfather Part II (1974) due to a money dispute. Castellano's character Clemenza was killed off and Gazzo was cast as Clemenza's successor in the Corleone crime family in New York. Gazzo was outstanding as the old-fashioned, unsophisticated mafioso who, believing he has been betrayed and marked for death by his don, turns state's evidence against him, only to honor the Mafia code of "omerta" in the end. Gazzo won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nod for his performance. Gazzo continued to work in films until his death, mostly assaying Mafia bosses and other criminal types. On film, though, he was able to break out of typecasting in his frequent television appearances and play good guys. He died of a stroke on February 14, 1995 in Los Angeles, at the age of 71.
