Eric A. Bell

Eric was born in Indianapolis, IN on August 31, 1986, and is the eldest of seven siblings. His journey into acting is a recent, unexpected change in life direction, albeit a much anticipated adventure, as Eric has dreamed of acting in films since he was a young child. After spending much of his life putting others before him and making sure his family was secure, Eric made a decision, stepped out on faith, and has been pursuing his dreams aggressively. Though he feels his acting career has just begun, spanning over the course of just one year, he is blessed and proud of the accomplishments he has achieved in that time. Starting with extra work for his first on-set film experiences, Eric made appearances as a background actor in movies (Purple Bench Film's Walter, Murray Picture's Caretaker), episodes of various major network television shows (SHOWTIME's Shameless, STARZ's Boss, MTV's Underemployed, and NBC's Parks and Recreation), before eventually working his way up to lead/supporting roles in short films, independent films, and commercials. He's been fortunate enough to work with such talents as Quinton Aaron from the Academy Award-winning film "The Blind Side", Christopher Judge, Tzi Ma, Booboo Stewart, and William Atherton (all filming his role in 2014's "Lowlifes"). In 2014 you can catch Eric in the upcoming projects - Co-Lead recurring role in "The Places You Find Love" web series, Supporting role in "Lowlifes" with Quinton Aaron, Christopher Judge, Tzi Ma, Booboo Stewart, and William Atherton, as well as a Supporting role in "Intentions" web series. During the summer of May 2013, Eric concluded a well received stage play run in Lillian Hellman's "The Little Foxes" at Carmel Community Players Theatre in Carmel, Indiana, for which he received a 2013 Encore Association Award Nomination for Best Minor Supporting Actor in a Drama. Eric holds a Bachelor's of Science in Business Administration and a Master's in Business Administration, both with a focus in Accounting, received from Valparaiso University, in Valparaiso, Indiana.
