Chris Ferretti grew up in character actor city of Bayonne, New Jersey and fortunately survived his stay there without acquiring an accent. He received his BS in business marketing from the University of Rhode Island and upon graduation wrote and published his first book about the folly and drama of his college experience called The College Files.

Chris has recently graduated with his Master of Fine Arts from the Actors Studio at Pace University (NYC).

During his time at the Actor’s Studio Drama School, Chris worked on such material as "Long Day’s Journey Into Night," "Romeo and Juliet," "Julius Caesar," "Some Men Need Help," "A Doll’s House," "Strange Snow," and "Snow Angel."

In addition to acting, Chris has always been drawn to comedy, impersonations and writing and it's these talents that have afforded him the opportunity to work on projects involving Michael Ian Black, James Gandolfini, Ed Helms, and Bradley Cooper.

His most recent accomplishment is writing and acting in THE SESSION – A Pitch Black Comedy in Act One, that recently debuted at the Manhattan Repertory Theatre in April 2010 and will also appear again at the Riant Theatre this August for the Strawberry One Act Festival.

Most recently Chris was featured with Denis Leary on the Emmy award winning show RESCUE ME.

Chris is very proud and excited to be a part of the Breakthrough Talent staff and eagerly looks forward to teaching the next generation of artists.
