Regen Wilson

Regen Wilson is an actor, originally from Atlanta, Georgia, the son of an airline pilot and naval aviator and his wife, a former flight attendant. Wilson started acting in the theatre at an early age and otherwise spent his extracurricular youth as a competitive swimmer, equestrian and occasional pianist.

Following in the footsteps of his father, Wilson opted for military service after graduating from high school in Danville, Kentucky, and chose to attend the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado. While there, he devoted any spare time he had to building up the neglected cadet theatre company, eventually expanding it to include filmmaking.
