Person Biography:
The middle child of nine siblings, Junior grew up in a small Idaho farming community. His journey in the world of acting began when he played the dragon's left foot in his fifth-grade class school play. This marked the start of an exciting ride, as he went on to study theater and business at Brigham Young University (B.Y.U.) Idaho and continued his studies at B.Y.U in Theater and Film.
His feature film credits include roles in MGM's Legally Blonde 2 and independent films such as Missy and Take a Chance. On stage, he has played notable roles like Jake Blues in the Blues Brothers Show at Universal Studios Japan, Fiddler on the Roof at Sundance with Tony award-winning Michael Rupert, and Lenny in Of Mice and Men.
From 1999 to 2008, Junior performed as a guest artist with Odyssey Dance Theater out of Salt Lake City, Utah, touring the world as a ballroom dancing Hunchback in their hit Halloween show "Thriller". He also played the role of Harold Zidler in "The Can Can Club" (aka "Moulin Rouge") and Uncle Billy in "It's a Wonderful Life".
From 2009 to 2012, Junior worked with Cirque du Soleil in "Viva Elvis" at the Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, as narrator Col. Tom Parker. In early 2012, he moved to Los Angeles and signed with Joe Kolkowitz at Players Talent to expand his film and television career.
