Still Shot From  Get A Life

TRAINING
Sal's training started in the early 1980s under the late, great Don DePollo of Chicago's Second City. Training and learning the art of Improv at a young age [17] kept Mr. Amato busy.  In fact, he was the youngest member ever accepted into their training program at that time.

With on-air training applied in various markets including Chicago, Phoenix and Los Angeles radio through the years as well as training at Chicago's Piven Theatre (John Cusack, Jeremy Piven, Aidan Quinn) under the guidance of Larry Grimm and Advanced On Camera training at The Audition Studio in Chicago under Kurt L, Sal has a tremendous amount of talents applied in all fields of entertainment.
