Bronson Picket, a 1993 graduate of Hamilton, was interviewed by The Boston Herald about his role as high school teacher Marcos Morales in the new Lifetime series "Wild Card." According to the Herald: "After majoring in theater at Hamilton College, Picket moved to New York City and was the lead singer for the band Pull.
