Elias McCabe is an actor and photographer living in Los Angeles. His interest and love for photography began when he was a 19 year old infantryman serving a tour of duty in Vietnam. His first 35mm camera was a "point and shoot" bought from a PX truck on a remote jungle fire base, and whenever time and circumstances allowed he would capture various moments in the life of a "grunt". Upon being discharged from the military and returning to school he found time among his studies to continue his photography and squeeze in a few photo classes. When his goal of getting accepted into dental school was not realized and after working various odd jobs he embarked into the world of fashion as a model. His work as a model took him to the fashion capitals of the world, New York, Paris, and Milan. While in New York he worked and became friends with the late Ken Haak, a photographer who inspired, encouraged, and mentored Elias. After a successful ten year plus run as a model Elias returned to his hometown of Los Angeles and began his journey as an actor, never having lost his passion for photography.
