Brian Peter Jones was born in San Bernardino, California. By 1999, Brian moved to Atlanta, Georgia to attend school. Throughout his journey in Atlanta, he gained an interest in acting. In 2009, he enrolled in his local high school's theatre program with hopes to get familiar of acting on stage. Since then, Brian has participated in many known productions in his career as a high school student such as "The Wiz," "West Side Story," "Beauty and the Beast," and more. Brian's first speaking role was played during his sophomore year in a play named "African Medea," directed by True Colors Theatre Company's Nikki Toombs. "African Medea" was an African-based play which derived from the Greek story, "Medea." In this play, his supporting role was the Messenger. Later, Brian began to land major roles. In "West Side Story," he played the role of Bernardo Nunez. He also played the Beast in Disney's tale, "Beauty and the Beast." His first production he participated in outside of his high school was "Diamonds Aren't Forever," directed by Fredrick Nah IV. Though theatre is the foundation of Brian's training in the acting industry, he decided to take his talents to film in 2013. "Masters," directed by Jason Lau, was his first film ever. He gained the training of acting on camera from the cast and directors of this production. Brian decided to take his talent to the next level after all of which he had accomplished and submitted to a national monologue competition known as "August Wilson's Monologue Competition." This monologue competition was conducted under the True Colors Theatre Company. In the state of Georgia, Brian went against over fifty contestants and won first place. He flew to New York to compete nationally on Broadway in the August Wilson Theatre. Brian wishes to continue growing in the industry and hopes to reach today's successful actors.
