Primetime and film actors Rob Corddry ’93 and Jeffrey Donovan ’91 return to the UMass Amherst campus to honor their theater professor.
Alumni actors with familiar faces returned to campus last fall to reunite with their mentor, Professor Emeritus Ed Golden, who taught theater from 1978 to 2003, and to create a scholarship in his honor.
Corddry is a former correspondent on The Daily Show. He created the Emmy-winning web series Childrens Hospital and now stars in HBO’s Ballers with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
Donovan is best known for starring in Burn Notice. He’s now the lead in the new Hulu psychic drama Shut Eye.
Pullman has had scores of starring roles in film, television, and on the stage, including the movies While You Were Sleeping and Independence Day. Pullman couldn’t attend the celebration for his former professor because he was shooting an interrogation scene for USA Network’s crime drama The Sinner.
Pullman was a UMass dance student who also acted in theater department productions.
