Philip Covin

Philip Covin is an American actor, who was born in Sylva, NC and grew up mainly in Georgia. His love of performing was apparent at the age of five, as he attempted to entertain others by wearing his Halloween costumes in public year-round. Raised by a mother who is a nurse and a father who is a Presbyterian minister, the principles of hard work, kindness, and compassion were instilled in him at an early age. Philip has one brother who teaches high school social studies. Covin had his first acting experiences at a young age in church and school plays. Later, while working on his undergraduate business degree at the University of Georgia, he signed up for an acting class as an elective and became intrigued with the craft. After graduation, he began doing local theatre and has since studied with Atlanta instructors/working actors Jayson Warner Smith and Vince Pisani, among others. Covin has performed in film, television, commercials, and on the stage, all while spending two decades as a successful commercial real estate broker. Philip and his wife Amy enjoy their life in Atlanta with her son. Besides spending time with his family, he is an avid history reader and enjoys hiking in the Appalachian Mountains and playing guitar.
