Father, Walter D. Brewer worked in a number of high-level corporate
positions for Matson Navigation Company, culminating in the position of
director of corporate development from 1990-1998, when he died. His
work caused the family to move from Vallejo, California (where Craig
attended elementary school and junior high) to Orange County, returning
to Vallejo in the early 1990s. Walter frequently rented out local
theaters to present young Craig's plays and often financed Craig's
productions.
Craig's mother, Gail, was a school board member for Vallejo's district
both times the family lived there and taught English and Drama in
nearby Mt. Diablo School District. She allowed her son, fresh out of
high school, to teach her drama courses at College Park High School in
Pleasant Hill, California and produce/direct the school's plays, with
the school occasionally serving as a showcase for his original works.
Craig's father also helped finance school productions, and helped to
rent out local theaters for additional shows. Craig's high school
friends, including future wife,
Jodi Brewer
and
Chris Barela, took an active role in
CPHS's drama department productions. Craig's younger sister,
Amanda Brewer, attended CPHS from
1992-1995.
