Neal Bledsoe is a multifaceted individual, boasting a dual career as both an actor and writer. Born in Canada, although often misattributed to Seattle, he was named after the iconic Beat Generation figure, Neal Cassady, and a car thief his father knew.
A die-hard Seahawks fan for longer than it's been trendy, Neal's enthusiasm for the team is matched only by his disappointment with the Mariners. His acting resume is an eclectic mix of roles, including the Old Spice Man, flying Nazis, and hot food truck chefs, with a recent appearance on the show Shameless, where he shamelessly flaunts his white privilege.
In addition to his on-screen endeavors, Neal has also ventured into modeling, having been featured in a Tiffany's advertisement alongside the renowned Dutch supermodel, Doutzen. This experience was undoubtedly a highlight in his career.
Neal's writing credits include a series for Sports Illustrated, The Delicate Moron, which chronicles his attempt to play professional football with the LA KISS, the Arena League team previously owned by Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. His career highlight to date is Gene's comment that he is "a very attractive man of great sexual power."
Beyond his acting and writing pursuits, Neal has also published work in reputable publications such as Men's Health and several literary journals that, although lesser-known, are highly regarded. In his personal life, Neal is the proud owner of a dog named Pirate, who boasts an impressive Instagram following that likely surpasses that of many individuals.
