Larry Mauro

As a child, Larry always wanted to be a Muppet…er a puppeteer. Collecting various puppets from the local toy stores, Larry became obsessed with creating voices and performing them through his puppets for his family and friends.

During his childhood, he also loved creating rhythms by taking wooden spoons and smacking them on all of the pillows on the family couch. He started studying the drums at the age of 8 and played in all of the school bands available through high school including the Northern California Honor Band.

Then college came and he got the acting bug and completed a degree in Theater. After college, he performed in local repertory theater and then made the big move to Southern California. He continued his acting studies with the world-famous Groundlings improvisational troupe and then joined and performed with the comedy group, Hauska Comedy. Larry had the privilege to perform with Hauska Comedy at legendary Hollywood comedy clubs such as The Comedy Store and the Ice House. Over the years Larry has worked in several fields in the entertainment industry. Larry has worked as a music composer for music libraries, a professional drummer, a sound f/x editor and sound designer for film, and an on-camera commercial and indie film actor.

Larry has now come full circle back to his childhood dream of creating voices, thanks to the inspiration of his daughters who loved when he would read them bedtime stories using funny voices and his puppets.
