Northside of Lafayette, Louisiana, was the birthplace and childhood home of Eric Bartholomew Schexnayder, a charismatic individual raised by his parents, Earl the Pearl and Judy. Growing up, Eric naturally developed his talents as an entertainer, perfecting his skills in the Montgomery Ward parking lot of the Northgate Mall. His smooth, velvety voice and tall, athletic 6'6" frame soon caught the attention of the crème de la crème of South Louisiana, particularly the ladies. However, Eric's exceptional abilities soon surpassed regional boundaries, and he went on to achieve national recognition. Eric made his big-screen debut at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival, delivering a phenomenal performance as Teddy-the Obnoxious Boyfriend in Zach Godshall's critically acclaimed film, "Lord Byron".
