Ari Stidham stars in "Huge" on ABC Family as Ian, who is a sensitive, soulful musician with a self-deprecating sense of humor. He and Will become fast friends. Ian crushes on Amber, but finds himself unable to approach her—in his mind, he's not the kind of guy who ever gets the girl. But maybe, at camp, that could change?
Ari Stidham got his start at the early age of 3 in his parent's living room when he and his brother would act out their favorite TV shows. Then at the age of 7, Ari stepped on to the stage for the first time in the famous musical "Annie." You are thinking, there was never a boy in "Annie" and you are correct, Ari played Sandy...the dog. Playing a dog is all it took for him to really get the professional acting bug. Ari continued to perform on the stage in numerous plays and musicals that include a list from "Hamlet" to "Into the Wood." Ari furthered his study of acting and singing by attending an acting/musical theatre boot camp for youth at the renowned Actors Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco and is currently an active member of the improv company Comedy Sportz.
In his spare time, Ari enjoys singing, playing the guitar and writing his own music. He also plays the ukulele, piano, and kazoo. Ari holds a second degree Black Belt in Karate.
Ari continues to reside with his parents in Westlake Village, California.
