Andrew Caple-Shaw height - How tall is Andrew Caple-Shaw?

Andrew Caple-Shaw is a native of Fort Worth, Texas. He began his career in regional theater at the age of 8. At 18 he moved to Los Angeles to play defensive end for Occidental College. At the time he had no plans to pursue acting as a career. He sought work in TV and commercials mainly to support his goal of getting a college degree. He hope was to someday become a professor. His football career ended after his junior year due to an abdominal injury and a series of concussions. He graduated from Occidental Magna Cum Laude and was nominated for the Rhodes Scholarship, but upon graduation things were going well in Hollywood so he stayed with it. He saw himself as more of a work-a-day character actor than a leading man. Expecting to rely on union health insurance and contracts for the rest of his life, he became heavily involved in the politics of the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. He helped drive several campaigns for leaders of the various pro-merger and moderate factions, including those of Melissa Gilbert, Morgan Fairchild, and Roberta Reordan. He chaired AFTRA's New Technology Committee for several years, held a seat in the AFTRA strategy cabinet, and played a support role in preventing a major work stoppage following the writer's strike of 2007. Not expecting his coalition to be successful and anticipating the town to shut down, he enrolled in law school. He graduated in less than two years while still helping run the union and remaining active as an actor. He also won numerous accolades as an interscholastic Trial Advocate, leading his law school to their first national tournament championship.
