John Rozelle

John Rozelle was born on September 25, 1976 in Houston, Texas to Viola Elizabeth, Ronald J. He was raised in an educated, entertainment driven home. Early in life, he moved to New York where he later spent his high school years attending Andrew Jackson High School in Queens, New York. Upon graduation, he moved back to Houston where he attended Houston Community College and later went onto many acting schools to further evolve his acting skills. He attended Upright Citizen's Brigrade under the direction of Allan McCloud and Brian Frankenstein. Other schools include: The Playhouse West (under Tony Randall) and The Actors Company (with Daniel Probert). Although he enjoys all genres of music, John admits his first love of music was surprisingly Country, which he was introduced to by his grandfather, Colquitt McKinley. He later developed a love for both R&B and Pop music. This music appreciation is what led to his passion for drawing, poetry and writing music. When John was just 8 years old, he had the pleasure of meeting Michael Jackson during his Victory Tour. From that moment is where he became hooked on the industry and knew entertainment was the path he must follow. In the beginning of his entertainment journey, John could be seen competing at local talent shows throughout Houston and New York. He was also known for performing at block parties, house parties, performing art centers and community centers, anything that would allow him to express himself and share his gift with others. John found inspiration all around him but most significantly he recalls a friendship that was created early in his life with Darryl "GI" Jackson. They grew up together along with the other band members of H -Town in 1987 a friendship that he will always hold near and dear to his heart. Also notably around this time, is when all the external influences started to take form and could be seen in his writing and love of music during the Jack the Rapper Era where he had the opportunity to meet Jodeci for the first time. John's extensive resume includes background dancing and singing for Corey aka Sub-0, Toni Braxton and Jesse Powell. He also developed long lasting relationships with Eddie Williams and Tupac Shakur where he learned how to properly evolve his gift for writing music and composing poetry. In 2000, John moved to Los Angeles to focus on his acting career that he felt was the next natural progression for his career path. His first exposure came from doing extra work for Nike and also the show, Six Feet Under and Moesha. As of today, John can be seen in his latest film, Last Three Days. He also keeps himself busy working with his production team Productive Culture working on "The Bottom Line with John Rozelle," a podcast where you can find him talking about real issues and no superficial content.
