- James Kiberd is a unique hybrid. The immensely popular actor is also a committed artist, and a dedicated humanitarian. Kiberd is cited as one of the top 15 Fan Favorites of the 90s. He is best known for creating ground breaking, socially relevant roles on Daytime Drama over 15 years, such as The troubled Vietnam Vet Mike Donovan on ABC's Loving, and the wild and woolly Mercenary turned Detective, Trevor Dillon on All my Children.
Since leaving Daytime (2001) Kiberd has sought challenges on stage, and independent film. The "2004 Best Actor" Zoni Award winner for his Petruchio in Taming of the Shrew, Kiberd continues an active theatre career playing Shakespeare's Killers, Kings, and Klownes, while mixing in some of the most edgy of contemporary theatre. At the opposite pole from the mad cap lover, Petruchio, Kiberd played the Garbo obsessed "Walter" who wants to die in the arms of his own "Armand' a la "Camille" in the AFI production "Sunset Tuxedo" in 2004.
His "creative alliances" range from avant garde theatre directors to sitcom greats.- IMDb Mini Biography By: James Kiberd

- In my role as National Ambassador for UNICEF I've found that a people, a culture is as good as the stories it tells about itself. Our stories tell us who we think we were, are, and will become. It's through our stories that we imbue the ethics, morals and values that are key to the survival of a culture and its people. A child asking to be told a story again is reaching for a tool that will serve a lifetime. When a people's story telling falters they have lost a clear sense of who they are and their world is in decline.
