Jeremy Roberts, a man of many names, was initially known as Jerry Thompson, but this moniker failed to stick. At the tender age of two, his mother made the bold decision to pack up their belongings and relocate to the iconic Beverly Hills, which, in reality, was actually Hollywood. And so, Jeremy grew up amidst the glamour and excitement of Tinseltown.
After completing his education, Jeremy joined the United States Marine Corps, where he rose through the ranks, earning the prestigious title of sergeant not once, but twice. His service during the tumultuous Vietnam War was marked by bravery and dedication, ultimately culminating in an honorable discharge.
Post-military life saw Jeremy working as a lifeguard and bartender at the esteemed Lakeside Golf Club, which happened to be situated next door to the renowned Burbank Studios. It was during this time that he had the privilege of serving drinks to some of Hollywood's most legendary figures, including John Wayne, Bing Crosby, and Frankie Avalon. Jeremy even had the unique opportunity to teach the children of these icons how to swim.
Jeremy's foray into the world of acting began as a favor to a director friend, who was working on a production of the play "Laugh-In," inspired by the popular television series. This marked the beginning of Jeremy's journey into the world of theater, which would eventually lead him to graduate from the prestigious American Conservatory Theatre's M.F.A. program.
Throughout his illustrious career, Jeremy has had the privilege of working with some of the most respected repertory theaters, including the Denver Center Theatre and The Pacific Conservatory for the Performing Arts. His first foray into television was a memorable one, as he made his debut by robbing John Ritter in the popular series "Hooperman."
Today, Jeremy Roberts is widely recognized as a talented actor, with a diverse filmography that includes notable roles in "Herbie Fully Loaded" (2005),"The Mask" (1994),"Christmas Vacation" (1989),and "Star Trek: Undiscovered Country" (1991).
