Alek was raised in Manchester, NH in the USA along with his sister, Alene, by their parents Dr. Kevork and Cecil Keshishian. While he was a superb student of math and sciences, and his father wished Alek would follow in his footsteps in medicine, Alek`s talent and passion for music, theatre, and dance was too strong. As a youngster, both he and his sister toured with the NH Children`s Theatre, American Children`s Theatre, and the "I Like the U.S. of A." National Touring Company. While studying at St. Paul`s School in Concord, NH, Alek quickly became the renowned program`s lead dancer. Before graduating from Harvard University, he became the first Junior to produce the then 106-year Harvard tradition of the Hasty Puddings, joining a long list of future illuminaries, including Jack Lemmon.
