Laurie Goode(I)
- Actor
- Additional Crew
Laurie Goode was born in Windsor not long after WW2. His parents came
from Hackney, East London, but moved out of the area during the Blitz;
having been made homeless twice.
In his late teens, as Laurie mastered the guitar, he became involved in
photographic modelling. It was the Sixties and top fashion
guru/entrepreneur, John Stephen, had his staff employ Laurie for
countless photo sessions. Other organisations began to hire him for
advertising campaigns, and for a period exceeding two years, his photos
appeared in numerous publications. Feature parts in TV commercials
followed, but a career in music was his main interest.
He teamed up with London band Uproar. It was at this time he undertook
his first speaking roles for film/TV directors
John Dexter and
Viktors Ritelis.
Eventually the members of Uproar went their separate ways and Laurie
then concentrated on various forms of writing. He wrote two plays for
David McGillivrays' company The
Entertainment Machine. Both plays were performed at the that The
Edinburgh Festival. He has also written for Mick Carling's video
company UXB and The Beat.
At present, 2008, Laurie is writing the last draft of a novel.
