Date of Birth : Sep 9th 1965
American actor and singer known for his appearances on the improvisation show Whose Line Is It Anyway?.
In 2001, Esten appeared in Billy Crystal’s TV movie 61* as Kevin Maris, the son of legendary New York Yankees slugger Roger Maris.
Esten had small roles in three Kevin Costner movies, The Postman, Thirteen Days as downed U-2 pilot Major Rudolf Anderson, and Swing Vote.
Esten also starred in a public service video, “Riding Straight”, produced for the Motorcycle Safety Foundation’s curriculum, “Motorcycle Rider Course: Riding and Street Skills” (MRC:RSS). Esten portrayed a surfer dude, a snuff-dipping hick, and a concerned friend in a bar. Esten’s performance, in turns over-the-top comedy and sincere public service message, greatly invigorated the drug- and alcohol-awareness portion of the MRC:RSS. The video, part of a curriculum update for a younger “MTV generation” audience, replaced a filmstrip-like anti-alcohol short.
