PANDAMAN BIO:
Stephano Christophero AKA Stephen Christopher (AKA PANDAMAN) is an
'award-winning' writer & voice artist (vocalist, voiceover, singing impressionist);
born in Huntsville Alabama. At 5, his family moved to Baltimore where he died
(for a few minutes) just shortly after 'a sneeze' busted the stiches in his throat,
right after having a 'tonsillectomy which led to him "hemorrhaging to death!"
After drowning in blood & a full blood transfusion, he was revived & lived again!
At 13 years old, Stephen's dad (Aerospace Engineer & Teacher For The Army),
moved his family to Glen Burnie MD. and got him a set of drums for Christmas.
This quickly led to him becoming a drummer/singer and singing impressionist!
Before long, he was drumming & singing in bands and winning competitions.
That's when his dad began calling him Steevereeno (his crooner stage name).
After years of drumming & singing and time serving his country in the military,
(but after injuries from overseas started getting worse), he stopped drumming
and continued as a vocalist/singing impressionist until a bad case of 'pleurisy'
forced him to have to stop singing for a while as well. Eventually and sadly,
his injuries (depression and down time for pain, doctors. therapies, recovery)
all led to him being too undependable for steady gigs, tours or being signed.
To help keep his mind off of his pain, along with lots of praying (and praying);
he'd work on his impressions, singing and recording fake radio shows at home!
(Little did he know, he'd actually end up doing real radio shows many years later!)
After much time being couped up at home (missing the fans and doing shows),
he ended up meeting some clowns who introduced him to a world of clowning.
After a few tips were passed down from "Emit" (Ringling Brothers Circus Clown),
This not only led to picking up some part-time work here & there but it also led to
him becoming 'PANDAMAN' - a storytelling, impressionist clown in variety shows!
Later on, he decided to go to school & enrolled at The Broadcast Institute Of MD.
during his 2nd semester, he got a job at a local station as announcer, voiceover &
commercial writer AKA Chris Stevens. By the end of his first year in broadcasting,
he was producing & hosting his first radio show called The Suppertime Show ...
Starring MC PANDAMAN® & his Pandaman stage characters AKA The PandaMen
AKA The PANDAMAN Clan Ex: The Pandaman Twins, The Pandaman Superhero
and a few other original voice creations (Ex: Josy-n-Joel The Siamese Troll Etc.);
Only now (10 years later) he's actually performing them in 'Real' radio shows! :)
After winning multiple awards (for commercial writing, voice-overs, impressions),
"Absolute Awesome" Entertainment (his entertainment service & future record label)
ended up becoming AKA "Absolute Awesome" Entertainment & Advertising;
offering commercials & voice-overs (outgoing voicemail & on hold messages etc.
Due to his health, Pandaman retired from broadcasting and now resides in PA but,
before his health forced him into retirement, his voiceovers & impressions aired
on nearly every station in the dial!' Learn More At The Links Below!
