JD's mother was in the national touring company of "South Pacific," so the passion for theater and acting has been ingrained in him since birth. As a young boy in the early 1970's, he landed his first role in "Annie Get Your Gun" at RLT's Main Stage. JD's work over the years has included film, television, commercials, voice overs, hosting, industrials, lots of theater...and stints as director/producer. His children have followed in the family legacy and star in the television series "Rusty Bucket Kid's Club."
