Anthony Pierce, a multifaceted individual with a passion for the creative arts, was born on March 27, 1970, in Silverton, Oregon, as the youngest of eight siblings. His introduction to the world of acting occurred in grade school, when his teacher asked him to portray Injun Joe in Mark Twain's timeless classic, "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer". This early exposure to the performing arts sparked a flame that would continue to burn brightly throughout his life.
As he entered his teenage years, Pierce's creative pursuits only intensified, culminating in the writing of his first feature screenplay in 1987, while still a high school student. This remarkable achievement was matched only by his success in the George S. Kaufman play "You Can't Take It With You", where he won the Best Supporting Actor award. His television debut as "Vince" in the popular "Vince and Larry Crash Dummies" series further solidified his place in the entertainment industry.
Following his high school graduation, Pierce transitioned into the world of television commercials, though his true calling remained writing. Years later, in 2007, he rekindled his passion for filmmaking, penning and directing an award-winning short film. This creative resurgence was accompanied by the sale of his first feature-length screenplay, "Age, Sex, Location", a testament to his talent and perseverance.
Today, Pierce resides in the Pacific Northwest with his loving wife, Jenny, and their five children, Kayla, Khoti, Miranda, Maya, and Gabe, who undoubtedly bring him immense joy and inspiration.
