MIA by John Lansing: Guest post

Careers are a long time in the making. I thought I’d share a glimpse into how mine got started.

So, I’d take the Long Island Railroad into Manhattan and audition at cattle calls when I didn’t have class. Amazingly, I booked my 1 st big job as an understudy in the First National Tour of Grease.
