Christopher Showerman (born June 24, 1971) is an American film and television actor, best known for his role as George in George of the Jungle 2.
Born and raised in Michigan, Showerman embarked on an acting career after attending Michigan State University, where he majored in music. After small roles in several studio feature films, including Starship Troopers (1997) and Best in Show (2002), Showerman was cast in the lead in the independent movie Dumped (2000). His big break came in 2003 when he was cast to replace Brendan Fraser as George of the Jungle in Disney's George of the Jungle 2.
Showerman has also appeared in such films as Sea of Fear, Idol, Live Fast, Die Young, Complacent and Big Game. His most recent credits include Hole in One, A Night at the Silent Movie Theater, Commander and Chief and Radio America, which he also wrote, produced and directed. On television, he has appeared on Jack of All Trades, The OC, and CSI Miami.
George of the Jungle 2 is the 2003 direct-to-video sequel of the 1997 Disney film George of the Jungle. It was directed by David Grossman, written by Jordan Moffet, and stars Thomas Haden Church, Julie Benz, Christina Pickles, Angus T. Jones, Michael Clarke Duncan, John Cleese, and introducing Christopher Showerman as "George". The movie focuses on George trying to save Ape Mountain from his evil nemesis Lyle (Thomas Haden Church). The sequel was widely panned.
Five years after socialite Ursula Stanhope left civilization to marry George of the Jungle, George finds himself hard-pressed to fulfill the roles of jungle king, father, and husband. George's stress level increases when the "Mean Lion" challenges him for leadership of the jungle, and when Ursula's mother Beatrice teams up with Ursula's ex-fiancé, Lyle, in a plot to forcibly take away all that George holds most dear.
To do this, Beatrice invites Ursula, George, and George Junior to visit Las Vegas, which they accept. Throughout the visit, Beatrice and some of Ursula's fellow socialites try constantly to convince Ursula that George is unworthy of her affection. George, observing the threats but not his wife's resistance, begins to think himself unworthy of Ursula.
George of the Jungle is an American animated series produced by Jay Ward and Bill Scott, who created The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show. The character George was inspired by the story of Tarzan and a cartoon characterization of George Eiferman (Mr. America, Mr. Universe, IFBB Hall of Famer) drawn by a cook on his mine sweeper in the Navy during WW2. It ran for 17 episodes on Sunday mornings from September 9 to December 30, 1967, on the American TV network ABC. The half-hour program was distributed for many years by Worldvision Enterprises, currently part of CBS Television Distribution.
Each episode featured three segments in the form of three unrelated cartoons: George of the Jungle, Tom Slick, and Super Chicken. Each of the cartoons ended with a strike on the Tympani (Kettledrum), which changed to an ascending tone, following a bad pun.
Unlike previous Ward series, the animation production was done in Hollywood using veteran animators Phil Duncan, Rod Scribner, and Rudy Zamora, among others. Each segment's theme song was written by the team of Stan Worth and Sheldon Allman, though the cartoons themselves had little or no music scoring, as with Bullwinkle. Ward mainstays Bill Scott, June Foray, Paul Frees, and Daws Butler provided most of the character voices over all three segments.
Not quite as many as Brendan Fraser, but Christopher Showerman certainly took his fair share of lumps in George of the Jungle 2.

During 1583-84, the Earl of Oxford’s boys company performed John Lyly’s Sappho and Phao and Campaspe, as well as the anonymous play The History of Agamemnon and Ulysses, at court. Several literary works published in 1584 make reference to characters in these dramas. William Warner’s euphuistic novel Syrinx references Lyly’s Diogenes from Campaspe as the “Sinopian cynic,” alludes to an Athenian misanthrope, “or man-hater biting on the stage,” and to Apollo’s “coy prophetess,” Cassandra. Robert Greene’s 1584 euphuistic novel, Gwydonius: The Card of Fancy, was dedicated to the Earl of Oxford. Greene alludes to Timon in two passages, to a number of Trojan War characters including Troilus, Cressida, Agamemnon and Ulysses, and to Diogenes, Appelles, and Alexander, major characters from Lyly’s C...
In his sonnets Shake-speare reveals that he is embroiled in a ‘vulgar scandal’ that has made him ‘a motley to the view’ and a ‘disgrace in men’s eyes.’ This paper asks in whose eyes was he disgraced and what was the nature of his offence? It shows how evidence of this long-buried affair is still recoverable from existing sources and presents a fraction of it by way of introduction to an intriguing and under-researched aspect of Shakespearean biography. A talk given at the 2015 Shakespeare Oxford Fellowship Conference in Ashland, OR. Alexander Waugh is the author of Classical Music (1995), Opera (1996), Time (1999), and God (2002), as well as a family biography Fathers and Sons (2004), and the House of Wittgenstein (2008).

A singer in a church of 450-650 was generally appointed in the same way as a gravedigger - too lowly to demand the bishop's attention. http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/schooling-singers-in-the-cathedrals While the task of selecting a reader required the bishop to hear reports of the candidate's reputation for honest living and a presentation in a public ceremony, a singer who was often charged to voice the same divine words but in song could be admitted without any references or any codified rite of induction. Yet arrangements were increasingly made to school singers in the great metropolitan churches of the West, as will be demonstrated. The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures...
