Fresh from the acting program at Cal State East Bay, Craig Marker nabbed his first professional gig at Berkeley's Aurora Theatre Company and has worked steadily since. He's covered all points on the local compass, from Berkeley Repertory Theatre to American Conservatory Theater to San Jose Repertory Theatre. San Francisco Chronicle reporter Chad Jones recently profiled him, “Craig Marker in 'The Seagull' at Marin Theatre.”  

Catch this rising CSUEB star when he performs Marker in "Wirehead" at the SF Playhouse, followed by "Love in American Times” at San Jose Repertory Theater. In the summer, he will be back with the San Francisco Shakespeare Festival touring parks in "Cymbeline."

Marker cites CSUEB professors Ric Prindle and the late Edgardo de la Cruz as his inspirations.
