About the Author

MICHAEL RAY DAVIS has a long history of various and sundry careers. His claim to shame is he has had more careers than most people have had jobs. Davis began his acting career as a DJ, leaving a lucrative job driving a truck for a quarter of the salary to work in radio. After 4 years he realized the Peter’s Principle as he had become GM of the small town radio station where he had been doing mornings, play by play, sales, news and promotions. He left radio and got into doing voice over work, found out “Walker, Texas Ranger” was hiring extras, had a picture made, begged and got an agent and began his acting career 17 years ago as of this writing. Davis is a bred and born Texan, but currently resides in Orlando, Florida with his Redhead (Wife) of 23 years and continues to work on a regular basis as an actor and voice actor.
