The
Early Years:  Born
July 21, 1962 in Houston, Texas. Ike continued in his father's
footsteps with his acting career starting at the age of eight,
appearing in the long running television series of the 1960/70's
known as 'Gun smoke'. His most active acting period was in
the late 1970's early 80's with film's such as 'Escape to
Witch Mountain' and short television series such as 'The
Fantastic Journey'. He has also acted and provided voice
over's for many other television adverts and films (see Chronology) |

Ike Eisenmann has always liked Science Fiction with his interest sparked by the genre of the 1970's "I believe that anything that truly stimulates young people and excites them keeps them on the right track. Science Fiction provided that for me." "Science Fiction provided me, as a child, with a wealth of imagination-stimulating material. It kept me wondering and thinking and wanting more. It was directly responsible for opening me up as an artist, giving me images of aliens and space craft" |

Iake met and married his wife Alex in 1993. Alex, a writer from
Palm springs, California, has been working with her husband to
co-write and produce a short film entitled 'Single Family Dwelling'
which premiered on March 10, 1999 It seems that Ike likes Mexican and Italian often eating our with his brother Al and his friends, although he has a particular fetish for Pizzas. |
The Ike Eisenmann web site: Back in 1998 TuffNet developed this web site as a private 'Portfolio' for Ike Eisenmann. In September 1999 Wes Goode was granted the Official stamp from Iake for his web site. The Ike Site continued to increase the quality of its content and graphics. During 2000 news got out to the public domain that this site existed, consequently the site was re-branded as 'The Ike Site'. Due to personal reasons Wes Goode was unable to continue his site which went off-line in 2002 so In January 2003 Iake granted The Ike Site the official stamp. We made the decision to retain the name The Ike Site and not re-brand with Iake's new name Iake Eissinmann as this could cause confusion with visitors. |

Embarking on a career in fine art Ike developed a signature
'photo-realistic' drawing style consisting of faces and
figures; his artistic popularity has brought him to show
his work in Northern California and Santa Monica.

Eissinmann still has interests in Science and Science Fiction, asked
at times if he believes in UFO's he responds "It's a hard call.
But I would have to be pretty closed minded to believe that "we" are
the only ones in this vast universe that we have just barely explored"
