Lee Aaron Rosen

Born in pre-gentrified Brooklyn and raised in post-suburbanized New Jersey, LEE AARON ROSEN is a New York-based actor — except when he feels the need for warm weather, in which case he temporarily sets up camp in Los Angeles, a city he has slowly learned to love.

He could bore you with all of his credits here, but that's what a résumé is for, and you can find that elsewhere on this site. Suffice it to say, he is grateful for a varied career that's allowed him to work in everything from major motion pictures to small indie film; on and off-Broadway, and at some of the greatest regional theatres in America; with playwrights like Tony Kushner and Tom Stoppard; and with great directors of both stage and screen ranging from Marianne Elliott to Steven Spielberg.

In addition to acting, he has worked on the production of several documentaries, including HBO’s Spring Awakening: Those You’ve Known; Netflix’s A Secret Love; R.E.M. by MTV; and PBS’s Superheroes: A Never-Ending Battle. He has also taught acting classes and workshops around the country, and serves on the faculty of the School of Visual Arts’ MFA Visual Narrative program. He received his own MFA from NYU’s Graduate Acting Program.

Lee has also served as a longtime volunteer at New York's 52nd Street Project. He lives with his wife, Adria Vitlar, whose paintings you can find at the Isley and Woodrue shop on Etsy; their young son, whose drawings can be found on their wood floors; and two cats who have yet to take up any artistic endeavors.
