Ryan Tygh

Ryan Edward Tygh, an actor of Irish, English, Italian, German, and Apache Indian descent, was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Edward, an Auto Body Specialist, and Donna, a Police Officer. He has one sibling, a sister. Ryan credits his family for his love of the Arts. In his younger years, his father had a brief career as a recording artist, with titles such as "To Be Mine", and "Do What You Wanna". In the late 80's, he turned to producing, working with such names as The Duprees, The Skyliners, and the Original Temptations. Ryan's mother, also a lover of music, was an avid guitar player during her young adulthood. Ryan first became interested in theater after attending a performance of The Phantom of The Opera, starring the incomparable Kevin Gray. It was at this time that Ryan began to pursue a stage career of his own. While attending Archbishop Carroll High School in Radnor, Pennsylvania, he appeared in such productions as Arsenic & Old Lace, Godspell, Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and West Side Story. He credits his High School Director, Dr. David Brennan, with teaching him the importance of giving every single performance the exact same amount of energy. Dr. Brennan emphasized that an actor should be consistent, and always remember that each performance comes with a fresh audience who is seeing the piece for the very first time. Following his high school career, Ryan enrolled at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he spent a very short period of time. Less than one year, to be exact. Ryan lucked out that very same Summer, having gained membership in The Screen Actors Guild, and beginning what has been a career of ebbs and flows. To date, he has worked on more than ninety film and television projects, in every capacity, from production assistant, to background artist, to day player, to principal actor, to lead actor. Theatrically he has worked for a number of major houses throughout the Philadelphia area; such as The Walnut Street, Media, and Montgomery Theatres. As well as Philadelphia's historic Academy of Music. The Summer of 2017 has found Tygh doing more work behind the camera. He recently wrote, directed, and starred in "Splat", a short comedic parody of M. Night Shyamalan's Blockbuster, Split. And he is writing a biographical feature which is slated to be complete by the Fall.
