Click on the link to listen. The story is about 10 minutes long. I hope you can commit to that.
Broadway actor Matthew Morrison has the kind of talent that is most often seen on stage. An actor who can also sing and dance, he starred as Link in the Broadway production of Hairspray and won a Tony Award for his work in The Light in the Piazza.
Now Morrison brings his theatrical talents to the small screen, playing high school Spanish teacher turned glee-club coach Will Schuester in Fox's musical comedy series Glee. The actor says the role was a natural fit.
"Obviously the singing and dancing make it really special and suited to what I do well," he tells Lynn Neary. "If I could've written a role for myself, this would've been it. It's the perfect transition from going from stage into television."
Morrison says his inspiration for the role came from some of his former teachers at his Southern California high school. He describes his own high school experience as an "amazing" one.
