Bill first caught the acting bug in junior high, when he and his co-star both won awards at a scholastic drama festival for their portrayals of Box and Cox (or was it Cox and Box?) in the farce of that name by J. M. Morton. Since then, he's reveled in roles as diverse as Harold Hill in The Music Man, Jaques in As You Like It, and Julian Winston (Walter Matthau's role) in Cactus Flower. After a long hiatus, he returned to the stage this winter with a lead role in The Snow Ball at Rockville Little Theatre. By day, Bill is a law librarian at Georgetown Law Library. He and his partner, Mark Noble, share the house with four rambunctious dachshunds, a bassoon and a piano.
