Biography

Geoffrey JD Payne was born in Warwick, New York, and later relocated to the artistic seaside community of Rockport, Massachusetts, where he spent his formative years. At the tender age of 16, Payne embarked on his journey in the world of performing arts by attending a workshop in upstate New York, marking the beginning of his rigorous training. It was during this period that he was discovered and subsequently mentored for three years in the realm of musical theater.

As he approached his 19th birthday, Payne was encouraged to take the leap and explore the vibrant city of New York. His academic pursuits were furthered when he received a scholarship to attend the esteemed Weist Barron School for TV & Film. In 2006, Payne dove headfirst into the world of acting by enrolling in the prestigious Stella Adler Studio of Acting, where he immersed himself in the craft for two years. Upon graduating in 2008, Payne made his mark on the Off-Broadway and Off-Off Broadway theater scenes, with notable credits including "Choose Your Grown Adventure", "This is Our Youth", "Books On Tape", and "Humans Anonymous". During this time, he co-founded The Altruistic Theater Company.

Since 2016, Payne has expanded his repertoire to include short films. He acted in "Desde El Principio" ("Birdman or The unexpected Virtue of Ignorance" & "The Revenant"),a short film written by Oscar-winning writer Nicolas Giacobone and director Miguel J. Soliman. His other short film credits include "The Quiet" and "Boys & Toys".

Currently, Payne is dedicating his efforts to his latest project, "Headway".
