Christopher's Bio
Christopher Bowman (Bowman the Showman), a southern California native was born in Hollywood, California on March 30, 1967, raised in Van Nuys and trained in Burbank for 18 years of his skating career.
At a very young age, his parents realized the need for good training and representation therefore enlisting Mary Grady of the Mary Grady Agency (at that time the best children's agency in the business) and acting coach Alice Hour, best known as the script coach for the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock classic Psycho starring Anthony Perkins. Christopher appeared in over 500 television commercials and television shows including Little House on the Pararie & Archie Bunker’s Place along side legends Michael Landon, Melissa Gilbert and Carol O'Connor.
Christopher eventually branched into Feature Films as an Actor and Stuntman through Stunts Unlimited. He's been seen in various films including Casey’s Shadow with Walter Matthau the Troma cult classic Surf Nazi’s Must Die, License to Drive with Corey Haim and Joel Schumacher’s epic film The Lost Boys.
As a skater, Christopher became internationally known as "Bowman the Showman" and became one of the most electric, mesmerizing men's singles skaters in history.
Eighteen years of his career was nurtured by legendary coach Frank Carroll, past coach of skating greats Linda Fratianne and Michelle Kwan. Christopher trained in Toronto, Ontario Canada with his favorite male skater Toller Cranston and coach Ellen Burka, ending his more than 20 years of competitive training with John Nicks.

After a very successful competitive skating career, Christopher had once again found himself at home in front of a camera as he has embarked on a natural career of television commentating with FOX sports and as the lead skating analyst for ESPN covering US National and World Championships and numerous elite international events.
