Christian Pedersen was born and raised in the desert Southwest of Tucson, AZ. He comes from a family trained in theater. He and his siblings acted and studied theater under Lester Netzky at his Tom Thumb Front Row Players. Both parents were artists and respectively his Scotch-Irish mother was a teacher and activist and his Danish father a lawyer.
In his formative years Christian lived in Lake Tahoe working the mountains and racing snowboards - utilizing his penchant for being outgoing and extroverted. A graduate of the University of Arizona and proud alumni, Christian embraces the creative design process and earned a Masters of Landscape Architecture.
Getting back to his acting roots, Christian now studies under the tutelage of Lora Cunningham.
