Mark Steven Porro, a New Jersey native (Exit 163), earned an Industrial Design degree from The Ohio State University.

After years of agency work, his love of acting led him to Hollywood, where he appeared in dozens of television, film, and stage productions. Mark also spent his twenty-eight years in Tinseltown, entrepreneuring.

He started five non-profit companies. But hold the applause; none were intended to be.

He now lives in the South of France. But hold your pity. He is of sound mind and body and chose to suffer in the heart of wine country, where the locals insist his French isn’t so bad—at least, that’s what he thinks they’re saying.

Mark is an award-winning designer, writer, director, and Amazon Best Selling author. He has written many jokes, several screenplays, and one award-winning short film. 

A Cup of Tea on the Commode—a sad, sweet, and funny debut memoir—chronicles his multitasking adventures of filling his mother’s last years with love, laughter, and joy. Though not always successful, he came pretty damn close. Social Media links:
