About Me
Jensen Atwood
Jensen Atwood - played love interest to Oscar® Winner Halle Berry in Oprah Winfrey's Their Eyes Were Watching God, while working alongside the legendary and Academy Award® nominated Ruby Dee, as the unforgettable Johnny Taylor.
Historically Atwood, played a series regular in two groundbreaking television programs. Here network's Dante's Cove as Griff(en) - sexually fluid playboy with ties to the mysterious powers of Tresum who is desired by both male and female residents of Dante's Cove and in Noah's ARC as Wade - a huge successful screenwriter but uncertain about his sexuality and therefore reluctant to commit. He can be seen in hit TV shows Medium, Heist, Las Vegas (NBC) and countless others.
The range of this actor is unprecedented, due partly to his studies at both California State Long Beach and Playhouse West in Los Angeles. His triple threat of talents as an actor, dancer and singer has created a wide range of opportunities. He has worked as a background vocalist for R&B singer Tyrese and appears in a number of high-profile videos, working with some of the world's most popular musical artists: Beyoncé, Kelly and Michelle formerly known as Destiny's Child, Toni Braxton, Ashanti, Lil Mo, Chante Moore and Kenny Lattimore to name a few.
He is currently anticipating the release of feature projects I.E. (Inland Empire) and the ‘movie' version of Noah's ARC, and is considering primary roles in major upcoming musical theater productions. Due to popular fan-demand, he has released a date calendar (www.menoferos.com) for 2009 that is being received remarkably well. A former US serviceman of the Army, Atwood was born and raised in South Central, Los Angeles, California.
