Happy Birthday: Christian Camargo
Happy Birthday actor Christian Camargo
Born: July 7, 1971 in New York City, New York, USA
Married to:
Juliet Rylance (November 2008 – present)
QUOTES:
There’s something about my Mexican-American heritage… I’m proud of it.
I see theater as a simple formula. Audience plus players plus story makes the play.
I’ve played Hamlet and Coriolanus, Orlando in ‘As You like It’ and Ariel in ‘Tempest,’ among others.
My parents had a difficult divorce.
For reasons I don’t fully understand, tragic love has a certain appeal.
Juilliard is wonderful in that they don’t pick just one way of working. They give you a palette. There is method acting. There is a lot of attention to Shakespeare and verse.
Any part I do is a marriage of the words – what the playwright or producer or show runner’s vision is – to how I would play it. It took me a while to get rid of ‘Oh, they want it this way, so I’m going to do it how they want it.’
Actors are the most generous people when it comes to sharing their technique. But if you grew up in a household of carpenters, and you’re making a table, everyone would have a different way of doing it.

On Reagan: “I knew that being his wife was the role I wanted to play.”
[about her husband] “What can you say about a man, who on Mother’s Day sends flowers to his mother-in-law, with a note thanking her for making him the happiest man on Earth?”
Bob had an extraordinary career in both movies and television. Just when it seemed he was ready to retire, he always found a new project that kept him busy and filled with wonderful stories. – in response to the news about the death of friend/actor Robert Stack
[on former White House press secretary Jim Brady]. He had a certain twinkle in his eye and a way of letting you know that he knew what he was doing and everything would be all right. He had a zest for life that was infectious. He loved to hear or tell a good story, laughed easily, could see the silver lining in even the darkest cloud, and made the best chili in town!

When asked to give a speech at Harvard about his role on Batman (1966), he brought the original costume, said to be valued at a half-million dollars. Some students came up to him dressed as security guards and told him they would keep the costume safe. Then in the middle of the speech, one student stood up and asked, “When is a costume not a costume? When it’s stolen.” The lights dimmed and the students grabbed the costume and made off. After snapping pictures with one another in the cape, they later called Ward and gave the costume back. The ringleader of the gang? Harvard Lampoon editor Conan O’Brien.
