Early life


Born in New York City, Shulman has been acting since childhood, beginning his career in theatre and quickly appearing in more than 10 plays and musicals, including a two-year run on Broadway in Les Misérables, the original cast of Stephen Sondheim's Assassins, and two plays by John Guare. He was a member of the cast of Recess, and played the role of the Hustler Kid. It was during this time that he began his recording career and has since appeared on more than five albums. Shulman next turned to television and film and landed several roles, including Jodie Foster's Little Man Tate, M. Night Shyamalan's Wide Awake, Disney's Can of Worms, Fox's Party of Five (1994), and his acclaimed performance as Benny in the HBO special, Someone Had to Be Benny (1996) for which he was nominated for a CableAce Award (the youngest nominee in the Award's history) and won a Daytime Emmy Award.




Career


In 2009, Shulman produced and starred in the comedy/drama Sherman's Way opposite James LeGros, Enrico Colantoni, Brooke Nevin, Donna Murphy, and Lacey Chabert. Reviews of the movie cited “Shulman has puppyish good looks and a talent for both slapstick and exasperation. He ably conveys this character's remoteness from the real world, handling self-deprecating, sardonic asides with skill.”
From 2010–2014, Shulman appeared in TV shows ranging from Law & Order, Unforgettable, the feature film The Word, and the Atlantic Theater Company's White People by J. T. Rogers, while also producing the New York premiere of Mistakes Were Made at Barrow Street Theatre with Academy Award nominated actor Michael Shannon. In 2014, Shulman and Saavedra's production arm Starry Night Entertainment earned its first two Tony Award nominations as producers on Broadway's After Midnight (musical) and The Cripple of Inishmaan starring Daniel Radcliffe.
