Cassidy Barnes

Cassidy Barnes was born in the small town of Forest Grove, Oregon. He started his entertainment career as a young filmmaker and animator. Using his parent's video camera he became a prolific creator of stop-motion shorts and live-action capers. It wasn't long before Cassidy discovered the stage and fell head-over-heels in love. He became somewhat of a star in his hometown acting and singing in more than 20 productions - in addition to his talents as a performer, he also proved to to be quite adept as a director and Set/Costume Designer. After High School he moved to New York City where he majored in Musical Theatre at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy. Just one month after graduating he landed his first professional job touring the eastern seaboard with Chamber Theatre Productions Inc. From 2004 to 2006 Cassidy performed in numerous theatrical productions, working in cities all over the country from New York to Seattle. Despite his achievements in theatre, however, Cassidy's love for film never wavered. He began pursuing work in the NW independent film circuit and was cast in few short films as well as a couple features. Finally, in April of 2009 Cassidy moved to Los Angeles where he made his television debut on TNT's hit show "Leverage."
