Alexander Ian "Alex" Sharp (born February 2, 1989) is a Tony Award-winning English actor best known for originating the role of Christopher Boone in the Broadway Production of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.
After graduating from the Juilliard School in the summer of 2014, he made his Broadway and acting debut in the play The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time in the autumn. For his role as the autistic teenager Christopher Boone, he was awarded the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play, Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Actor in a Play, and the Outer Critics Circle Award.As of September 2015, he is the youngest winner of the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play.
Sharp was born in Westminster, London, and was raised in Devon, England by his mother, a teacher, and his father, who worked in real estate. He has a sister, Nicole. His father retired at the age of 35 and the family traveled extensively until Alex was seven years old. His mother homeschooled him with both "rigorous and unorthodox" lessons. Upon his return to Devon, he was unable to adjust easily to a traditional school environment, and eventually left England at age 18.
Sharp or SHARP may refer to:
Alex is a common name used in multiple languages. In English, it is usually a diminutive of the male given name Alexander, or its female equivalent Alexandra or Alexandria. Aleck or Alec is the Scottish form of Alex. The East European male name Alexey (Aleksei, Alexis, Aleksa) is also sometimes shortened to Alex. It is a commonly used nickname in Spanish for Alejandro, Alexandro, Alejandrino and Alexandrino, and related names like Alexa and Alexis.
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a 2003 mystery novel by British writer Mark Haddon. Its title quotes the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes in Arthur Conan Doyle's 1892 short story "Silver Blaze". Haddon and The Curious Incident won the Whitbread Book Awards for Best Novel and Book of the Year, the Commonwealth Writers' Prize for Best First Book, and the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize. As a writer for The Guardian remarked, "Unusually, it was published simultaneously in separate editions for adults and children."
The novel is narrated in the first-person perspective by Christopher John Francis Boone, a 15-year-old boy who describes himself as "a mathematician with some behavioural difficulties" living in Swindon, Wiltshire. Although Christopher's condition is not stated, the book's blurb refers to Asperger syndrome, high-functioning autism, or savant syndrome. In July 2009, Haddon wrote on his blog that "Curious Incident is not a book about Asperger's....if anything it's a novel about difference, about being an outsider, about seeing the world in a surprising and revealing way. The book is not specifically about any specific disorder," and that he, Haddon, is not an expert on autism spectrum disorder or Asperger syndrome.

My interview with Mr. Alex Sharp, a local artist and owner of his bistro The Mad Vine in Reidsville, North Carolina.
2017 / *A new art movement born out of wealth inequality... |"In the 1920s, a commerce-driven decade where "cash was king" and the system existed to serve a very small percentage at the very top of society in terms of wealth, there was little support for a struggling artist in America... it was during this time that the city of Paris began to get a reputation for being an artist's mecca. Writers like Henry MIller and Hemingway were among those drawn to this vibrant city, escaping to a culture that was frequently more appreciative and accepting of their arts. Now in 2017, in the midst of an era of wealth inequality similar to the 1920's.. the result has been a new wave of artists moving from America to Europe for the very same reason. This time the destination are Scandinavian countr...
