 * ThatGuyWhoLikesTWD is responsible for this interview, conducted on October, 11 2013.

Tripp West is an actor who has portrayed a man living in woodbury on The Walking Dead

TWD Wiki: How did you get your role on the walking dead?

I submitted through an Atlanta area casting company. They were looking for "guards" for Woodbury.At the time, I was out of work (I'm a radio DJ) and was doing a lot of background work on different movies & TV shows. 7

'''TWD Wiki: Did your character have a name or backstory? If not did you make one up for yourself?'''

I was not given a name. I never really thought about giving myself a backstory. I would have to think about that.

TWD Wiki: Do you have any intresting or funny stories from your time on set?

David Morrissey, as demented as "The Governor" is, is an extremely nice guy. During the attack on the prison in Ep. 16, he would take the time to talk to us and set the tone of the scene so we would stay focused on the intensity of what we were doing. If you've ever done any background acting, or been an extra, you will know that the principle actors rarely address the background. I never got the chance to thank him.

TWD Wiki: Are you currently working on any other projects?

No. I went back to work in radio back in August.

'''TWD Wiki: Thanks you on behalf of the entire wiki! For the interview'''

No problem.
