Kit Williamson is an American actor. He was born and raised in Jackson, Mississippi and attended Interlochen Arts Academy, an arts boarding school in northern lower Michigan[1] and Fordham University.[2] He is also openly gay.[3] He appeared in the Broadway premiere of Eric Bogosian's Talk Radio, starring Liev Schreiber, which ran from March 11 to June 24, 2007.[4]

Other stage performances include the Off-Broadway premiere of Przemyslaw Wojcieszek's "Made in Poland" at 59E59. The show was reviewed in Variety, which said, "Williamson's hilariously serious perf as an angst-filled wannabe revolutionary strikes exactly the right note. As he wanders around his little town in post-Communist Poland, vandalizing cars and trashing phone booths, the unfairness of everything becomes so oppressive he delivers Bogus' every line like it's a prelude to a fistfight." [5]

He has appeared in a number of movies and television shows, including "Best Friends Forever," starring Brea Grant and Sean Maher, 2010: Moby Dick from The Asylum and episodes of Numb3rs and Death Valley.[6]

He starred as Ben Rutter in the short Para-Normal which was screened at Screamfest Horror Film Festival, Horrorfest UK, and other festivals.[7][8][9]

In 2012, Williamson created the webseries Eastsiders which premiered in December. He played the role of Ed Gifford on the series Mad Men.
