A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Longview, Texas, USA
Born in Longview, Texas, Micah Lyons completed his schooling at Hallsville High School. An acting scholarship later led him to Texas State University, where he pursued theatre and film, eventually earning a BFA in Acting. Even before graduating, Micah made his mark in the acting domain, securing roles in plays, indie films, commercials, and network TV shows in Austin and Dallas. In 2011, he married model and actress Brooke Spurlock. Chasing their mutual aspirations, the couple relocated to Los Angeles. The city, rich in opportunities, embraced their talents, casting them in TV shows and commercials. The entrepreneurial spirit in them also flourished as they established their production house, Breath of Life Productions, LLC. Micah's flair for writing became evident as he penned over ten screenplays for their company. Among them is "BUD/S", a narrative focusing on a young man's relentless journey to become a Navy SEAL, primarily to earn the admiration of his strict military father. Family joys were aplenty as the couple welcomed their firstborn, Elijah, in 2013, and two years later, their second child, Finley. 2016 saw Micah in a pivotal role, both off and on-screen. He wrote, produced, and starred in "The Runners", a "Taken"-inspired action/thriller set against the backdrop of East Texas. More than just a film, it represented a cause – highlighting the dire issue of domestic human trafficking. Dedicated to making a tangible impact, the production team undertook initiatives to raise nationwide awareness on the matter, committing a significant slice of the film's earnings to non-profits working relentlessly against this menace. Most recently, Micah showcased his prowess as a producer and actor once again, by producing and taking on the role of Deuce in "Grumpy Old Santa".

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
