Biography |
Christopher "Chris" Lowell (born on October 17, 1984 in
Atlanta, Georgia) is an American actor. He attended the
Atlanta International School, where he became interested in
theatre and filmmaking. He currently attends University of
Southern California, where he was discovered in his first
year while playing beach volleyball. In his spare time, he
enjoys amateur filmmaking, theatre, and traveling.
After moving to Australia in 1999 he was discovered and
going through his first major audition, he landed a role on
the ABC drama Life As We Know It. Of the show's trio of male
characters, Lowell portrayed Jonathan Fields, the "least
confident but most creative and grounded of the three".
However, the series was cancelled after only 13 episodes.
Besides a role in a small film entitled You Are Here in
early 2006, Lowell did not have any major roles between when
Life As We Know It ended in early 2005 and summer 2006, when
he was cast as Stosh "Piz" Piznarski in the third season of
Veronica Mars. In the series, Lowell plays a student at
Hearst College, and the roommate of Veronica's friend
Wallace. Through this, Piz becomes friends with Veronica and
is perceived as a threat to the relationship of Veronica and
Logan. Towards the end of the third season, when Logan and
Veronica split, Piz proves to be a welcome distraction to
Veronica.
Lowell has also appeared in the film Graduation. Lowell is
currently a co-star in the ABC drama Private Practice. The
pilot aired in the US on May 3 as an episode of Grey's
Anatomy.
Lowell is also the vocalist and harmonicist for the indie
acoustic band Two Shots for Poe. |
