acting and majored in English and creative writing. He moved to New
York City after college graduation to begin his professional career,
landing his first major role as Robin Williams's sidekick, Truman
Schiff, in Patch Adams (1998). A favorite of Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright
Beth Henley, London has appeared on stage in two Henley world premiere

and, in 2006, "Ridiculous Fraud". London's work in "Impossible
Marriage" was seen by Steven Spielberg, who cast him as Wally, the
