The two passions first met when he co-wrote and co-starred in his first stage play (“Rom: Spaceknight,” adapted from the comic book) in 5th Grade — it was a disaster. Luckily, Christopher did not give up on either pursuit. By 9th Grade, his short-story, “Revenge,” had been displayed at the local Community Fair, he had appeared on stage again in a small role in Saved by the Belle, and he had started work on what would become his first novel. Throughout Junior High and High School, he often co-wrote and/or adapted stage material for he and his Humorous Duet partner to perform at Drama Contests, while he also starred in such plays as The Silver Whistle and Greater Tuna.

While attending the University of Oklahoma as a Theatre Major, Christopher starred as Bob Cratchit in A Christmas Carol and as Hamlet in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, among many others, and co-founded The Midwest City Off-Broadway Players to co-direct, co-produce, and star as Clifford Anderson in Deathtrap. He also completed two novels, the science-fiction Refuge Among the Stars (1989) and the psychological ghost story The Blue Man (1991), and a series of short-stories: “Thirst,” “Country Music,” “Big Little Brother,” “Suicide is Painless,” “Justice,” “Your Command Is My Wish,” “Mistake,” and “Game Reincarnate” (all 1991).

From 1991 to 1992, he wrote film reviews for the Oklahoma Associated Press. In 1992, he co-created and wrote the premiere issue of the comic book The Triumvirate, and he sold his first screenplay, an adaptation of his own “Thirst,” to RF Video Productions.

In May of 1992, Christopher received a Bachelor’s Degree in Theatre, and that August he bid farewell to Oklahoma and traveled to California to pursue a career in acting — and he continued to write.

Throughout the 1990's, he starred in the family short-film, “Windsong,” where he first met director Jonathan Lawrence; he co-plotted, scripted, and edited the premier and two subsequent issues of the Derek Lipscomb comic book, The Golden Scarab, for Sharp Eye Graphix; and he co-wrote the science-fiction feature-length screenplay, Dream Parlor, with Jonathan Lawrence.

1999 turned out to be quite a momentous year for Christopher. He completed and published his third novel, Pandora’s Game, and the Dream Parlor movie premiered.

Over the next few years, Christopher starred in such short-films as “Love Conquers All” and “HeroMan.” He also made a return to the stage, starring in such plays as The Uninvited, Blithe Spirit, Greetings!, Don’t Dress for Dinner, and Private Lives.

During these same years, Christopher completed and published three more novels: Dream Parlor (2000), the novelization of the film; Paranormals (2002); and Hamlet: Prince of Denmark (2005), the novelization of Shakespeare’s play — a collection of his early short-stories, entitled The Darkness Within, was released in 2006.

Today, Christopher lives in Southern California with his wife, Yvonne Isaak-Andrews. He is working on his seventh novel, Of Wolf and Man, the long-awaited sequel to Pandora’s Game, and continues to work as an actor, both on stage and in film — the movie version of Dream Parlor is now available on DVD, and his next feature-film starring role, Drivetime of the Dead, is in post-production.
