Persuaded to finish high school by his parents and the threat of having to talk to a social worker, he got his High School diploma from the private semi-bohemian prep school Solebury School near New Hope, PA.
He then briefly went to Rutgers (which is what kids who went to Livingston College call their college, those who went to Rutgers College always say "Rutgers College") where he took courses in Hebrew, economics, and Chinese.
Pavlov played for three or four years in the New Jersey/New York circuit in the mid-'80's at the very very end of what had once been a rock scene presided over by Bruce Springsteen. Nobody ever came to their shows and the only reason they would be invited back to clubs is because they were nice to the sound man. They actually played a few Monday nights at CBGB's but the owners hated Pavlov so they never moved onto any other nights.
Andrew went on to build a recording studio in the basement of his house, based around a Tascam 8-track 1/2" recorder and an Amiga 500 computer. He started the recording project "Prague Spring" and went on to release a half-dozen CD's, none of which did very well.
At the same time he began sound mixing and sound designing in the world of theater. In and around 1990 he helped form a union at Joe Papp's New York Shakespeare Festival where he was promptly fired after sleeping with Joe Papp's girlfriend†. Andrew went on to work for the miserable Wooster Group. After being fired (or possibly having quit, there's still some debate over that) from the Wooster group, and Willem DaFoe chasing him down the street with an axe‡, Andrew eventually went into the world of corporate video broadcast, which is a lucrative if soul-destroying profession. But it did support his new habit of making feature films. His first feature was a Hamlet shot on Pixelvision.
Drew is a founding member of Theatresource, a theater on MacDougal Street in Manhattan, and has abandoned the life of actually making money to make feature films instead.
† That almost sort of happened. Depends on your definition of "girlfriend".
‡ Didn't really happen, but makes for a more amusing story.
