A graduate of Rutgers University, Aaron Stanford received critical acclaim for his feature film debut in Tadpole starring opposite Sigourney Weaver and Bebe Neuwirth.

Stanford received the Rising Star of Tomorrow award from the 2004 Hamptons Film Festival for his performance in Winter Solstice. Runaway Boys, which he starred in and produced, was an official selection at the 2005 Tribeca Film Festival.

Stanford's other film credits include Spike Lee's 25th Hour, Woody Allen's Hollywood Ending, and David Mamet's Spartan.

Stanford played a starring role in Fox Searchlight's remake of Wes Craven's The Hills Have Eyes, released earlier this year, and the independent films, Flakes and Live Free or Die, the latter premiering at the 2006 SXSW and GEN ART film festivals.

He is currently in production on ABC-TV's and Warner Bros. Television's new pilot Traveler, in which he plays the title role of Will Traveler. The thriller is in the vein of Enemy of the State and Three Days of the Condor, and asks the question, do you really know who your friends are? Three Yale graduate students set out on a road trip only to become wrapped up in a national security emergency after one of them frames the other two for the bombing of a famous New York art museum. The two friends on the run (Matthew Bomer, Logan Marshall-Green) must clear their names by determining the true identity of their betrayer (Aaron Stanford), whom they suspect has set them up as part of a larger conspiracy. Flashbacks to the trio's lives together in academia help illuminate the lie that was their friendship.

Stanford began his career with an intense focus in theatre, beginning with a local theatre in his small Massachusetts hometown, college theatre, and work with the London Academy of Theatre. Stanford returned to the stage in 2004, performing to rave reviews in Where Do We Live, at the Vineyard Theatre in Manhattan.
