Chris Durham is a well known TV & film actor but his artistic endeavors have led him from very detailed pen and ink paintings to incorporating landscape design and home makeovers on a budget.  Since 1998, he has been a licensed wildlife rehabilitator and works closely with New York state and local animal facilities to help injured and orphaned fauna receive care and treatment so that they can be returned to the wild.  In 2010, he debuted a radio show, “Creature Comforts,” on WIOX in the heart of the Catskills.
