For almost ten years, he has worked professionally in TV (including “The Boys,” “Nurses” and “Clarice”), film (including “It Comes In Waves,” “Birthmarked” and “Daughter of the Wolf”) and theatre (most recently, in “Next to Normal” at the Stephenville Theatre Festival.)

Anton has written and directed several short films and plays.

Outside of his artistic endeavors, Anton also loves rock climbing, biking and the outdoors. He appreciates few things more than playing a long, tiring game of frisbee on a warm summer day.
