After going Off-Broadway to appear with Kim Hunter in "The Cherry Orchard", Paul was cast to co-star as 'Double J' opposite John Travolta in "Saturday Night Fever".
In addition to his on-camera and stage credits, Paul has been performing as a voice-over artist since the 1980s; a field that has brought him considerable success. With over 8000 credits to-date, he's been heard in virtually every media - including commercials, narrations, promos, trailers, television series, films, video games and national political campaigns. Recent accomplishments include being one of the voices of President Obama's re-election campaign in 2012, Hillary's Clinton's Presidential campaign in 2016 and Joe Biden's recent successful run for the Presidency; along with numerous U.S. Senatorial , Congressional and Gubernatorial races. Paul is also a voice for various environmental and energy related campaigns nationwide, along with his other corporate commercial credits.
Recent on-camera work for Paul in involves appearances opposite Tom Berenger in "The Detective". He appeared with "Nikita" star, Maggie Q., in the live action sequences of the $45 Million EA Sports video game "Need For Speed Undercover". Video game enthusiasts also saw him performing on screen in the live action sequences of "Black", a #1 seller in both the U.S. and England. He has appeared in several short films, the most notable being "Interrogation", a film that went on to garner 14 film festival nominations and 4 awards; for Editing, Overall Excellence, Out of Frame Best Short Film and Narrative Story. Paul co-produced and co-wrote the film with his best friend, voice-over legend Don LaFontaine, who passed away a short time later. Both men acted in the film and Paul received nominations in the writing and supporting actor categories. Recently Paul produced "Frank 'n Beans", a dark comedy, which was directed by "CSI" Producer/Director Phil Conserva. Along with the film's writer, Steve Apostolina (also his producing partner), both men star in the piece. Paul was also seen briefly in the John Lacy film "Custody" and played a supporting role in Lacy's newest film, "Rosebud Lane", with Tess Harper, which won at several film festivals and has recently been released nationally.
Recent on-stage appearances include starring with Charlene Tilton in Russ Woody's "One Last Favor", and with Emmy Nominee Liz Bliss in "Waiting For Go", written by Ken Levine (Emmy winning writer of "*Mash*", "Cheers" and "Frasier").
Paul is the President and CEO of New Trails Productions. Originally called Red Wall Productions until re-structuring under the new name in 2011, the company initially optioned the rights to a single book, Larry Pointer's "In Search of Butch Cassidy". They now own the film rights to three other books: Jon Chandler's "The Spanish Peaks" (winner of the Western Writers of America Best First Novel Award), "Song of Sorrow" by Patrick Mendoza and "Murder at the Brown Palace" by Denver Post columnist Dick Krek. Along with his partners, which include veteran producer Lincoln Lageson, New Trails is committed to developing projects that appeal to a wide audience. In addition to the recently produced "Frank 'n Beans", preparations are now underway to produce an hour-long docudrama "The Testimony of Silas Soule".
Paul is a member of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences and served on the Board of the SAG-AFTRA Foundation for eight years. He is a Co-Founder of the Foundation's Don LaFontaine Voice-over Lab - a half-million-dollar facility dedicated to the development and success of voice-over artists. Having conceived the idea as a way to honor the memory of his best friend, he was joined in the effort by 22 of the industry's top professionals. The Lab opened in Los Angeles in 2010 and has been hugely successful - so much so that a sister Lab has been built in New York City. The original Lab is being moved and rebuilt in 2023 at a cost of over a million dollars, with the new facility becoming an integral part of the new Meryl Streep Center for Performing Artists, due to open in early 2024. As Chair of the Lab's Advisory Board, Paul is helping oversee the transition.
