Langley Kirkwood was born in Bromley, Kent, England, UK. His family
moved to South Africa when Kirkwood was young. The son of a poet and an
art teacher, he was exposed to literature and the arts from an early
age and fell in love with acting in his school years. He studied drama
at high school and at Johannesburg's Wits University, and started
working in theatre immediately thereafter. He made an award-winning
debut at Johannesburg's Market Theatre as Billy the Kid and followed
that up by award-nominated performances in other theatre productions in
both Johannesburg and Cape Town, and winning another award as Biff
Loman in Miller's Death of a Salesman. He had two children, Willow and
Phoenix with former Calvin Klein model Josie Borain. He lives in Cape
Town and works primarily in film and television, but still finds time
for theatre and also works as a voice-artist. He is a fitness fanatic
and spends much of his free time trail running, cycling and competing
in ultra distance races.
