Jon Read(I)
- Actor
- Additional Crew
- Stunts
Jon grew up in the suburbs, 25 miles south of San Francisco. During a
family vacation to Universal Studios, at the age of ten, he became
fascinated with the world of make believe and dreamed of someday
becoming an Actor. His life took him down many different paths, and 27
years after that first visit to Hollywood, Jon decided to go after his
dream. He began taking acting classes in San Francisco in 2001 and was
quickly picked up by a San Francisco based Talent Agent that same year.
In 2002, with Film and Television work already on his resume, Jon
became a member of the Screen Actors Guild. Jon's initial goal was to
start out in commercial work, however his twenty plus years of law
enforcement experience set the perfect foundation for playing cop roles
in Film and Television. In 2002, Jon completed work on the award
winning independent film, Skin Deep, starring Debra Wilson (Mad TV),
"Happily Even After", starring Fay Masterson and Ed Asner, and
"Twisted", starring Ashley Judd and Samuel Jackson. He has also been
involved in Voice Over work for Radio and Industrial Productions, as
well as acting roles in Industrial Films and Print Work.
