Randall Taylor, a multifaceted actor, embarked on his illustrious career in the realm of musical and classical theatre, captivating audiences with his remarkable performances in productions ranging from Shakespearean masterpieces to modern classics such as The Rainmaker and Camelot.
Born to a Baptist preacher in the heart of West Texas, Randall's formative years were marked by a unique blend of cultural influences, as his family relocated to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, where he spent a significant portion of his childhood. However, the family's decision to move to Illinois was prompted by a stark reminder of the harsh realities of racial segregation, as a cross was burned in their yard due to his father's unwavering stance against discriminatory practices.
It was during his teenage years in the midwestern town of Carbondale, Illinois, that Randall discovered his true calling in the world of performing arts, with the theatre program at Southern Illinois University serving as his incubator for artistic growth and development.
Throughout his professional career, Randall has had the privilege of appearing in a diverse array of television shows, including the critically acclaimed Homeland, House of Cards, and The Vampire Diaries, as well as a string of notable films, such as The Founder, The Accountant, RoboCop III, and Rings.
