Many actors just list their email address and cell phone on their resumes. You definitely DO NOT want to list your street address on it. Many casting directors get so many submissions that they end up throwing a bunch in the trash.
(sad but true) and you never know where your info will end up. Some actors specifically have an answering service or special number just for jobs or when you have an agent you can list their contact info but if you are just starting out you are fine simply listing cell and/or email. Just make sure your email address is professional sounding. You do not want to submit yourself for jobs with an email address like snookums@yahoo, etc.

nerver give out your real address there to many psycos out there

yeah don't put ur address on it. u can put ur number though but u never know when a physco will find the thing and see ur picture, come to ur house and well i'll stop there haha. i read that somewhere too.

you can get a PO box for cheap at the post office. they lease them for 3, 6 and 12 months here. $30 for six months for a 2.5 x 3.5'' box
