Geoffrey Lower was born and raised in Casper, Wyoming, where he spent his formative years developing a passion for acting that would ultimately supplant his initial interest in pre-law studies at the University of Nebraska.
As his love for the craft of acting continued to grow, Lower made the bold decision to transfer to the prestigious Juilliard School in New York City, where he would hone his skills and earn respect for his stage work.
Subsequently, he worked with the esteemed Public Theatre in New York City, taking the stage at the New York Shakespeare Festival and eventually landing a Broadway role in "Happy Ending" alongside Garson Kanin, for which he received a Drama Critics Award.
Lower's impressive stage credits also include performances with the Shakespeare Theatre in Washington, D.C., the Los Angeles Shakespeare Festival, the Colorado Shakespeare Festival, and the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, where he brought to life iconic characters in productions of "The Taming of the Shrew", "Much Ado About Nothing", "Love's Labor Lost", and "The Merchant of Venice".
In addition to his extensive stage experience, Lower has also made a name for himself in contemporary theater, with credits including "What Doesn't Kill Us" at the McCadden Theatre in Hollywood, "There's One in Every Marriage" at P.R.T.E., and "The Marrieds" at the Whitmore-Lindley Theatre Center.
As a television actor, Lower has enjoyed a successful career, with notable roles in six seasons as the Rev. Timothy Johnson on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (1993) and two seasons on The Trials of Rosie O'Neill (1990),as well as numerous guest appearances on other TV series.
Lower's film appearances have allowed him to share the screen with a diverse range of award-winning colleagues, including Frances McDormand, John Lithgow, Robin Williams, Giancarlo Giannini, and Peter Gallagher.
Today, Lower resides in Los Angeles with his wife, producer Karen Severin, and is represented by Terry Lichtman.
