Sounds like the American dream, but he was lucky enough that his high school and community theatre had great programs that helped shape him into the actor that he is today. Maybe it’s just pure luck, or perhaps, destiny. But Hunter Doohan went from being a fan of “Breaking Bad” into working together with the lead role of the iconic show. The Los Angeles-based actor has come a long way from his hometown in Fort Smith, Arkansas, but not without a fight and plenty of determination. Doohan has paid his dues, and now he’s well on his…
