Jacques Fournier

Jacques Fournier is an American actor of Acadian decent. Born Jacques Fournier II to Karol Kipp, a signal instructor for the U.S. Army, and Jacques Fournier Sr., an independent business consultant, Jacques moved around every few years as a child. However, after his parents divorced, Jacques' mother settled him and his older brother in Augusta, Georgia. Jacques discovered his passion for acting when he played Felix in his elementary school's production of The Castaways. Though he knew from a young age that he wanted to be an actor, Jacques spent much of his youth focusing on more "practical" work, until he was offered the chance to run the sound board for his high school's production of Grease, where his love for the arts was rekindled. The following year he joined drama class and drama club in his school and continued to perform in local theatre through his college years. After dropping out of college, Jacques continued acting in local short films and web series', and at the age of 27, he moved to Atlanta to pursue acting full time. He has been in several short films and two feature length films.
