Jody first started acting at a young age, in Florida. His mother named
him Jody after Jody on 'A Family Affair', and Lon after The Great Lon
Chaney. He started in community theater when he was 8 years old,
starring in the play, Oliver. Acting for over 20 years, through high
school, then performing at Florida State University. He took a few
years off to pursue a career in football. In 1993 he started in
commercials for a local Florida sports station, then working on
features. The biggest change in his life occurred when his sister
Brooke, his best friend, committed suicide. His pain and depression
stemming from the incident caused him to withdraw from society and the
work he loved so much for a time. As bad as this new tragedy was, it was sobering for
him, and he began to emerge from the darkness and back to life. He
began working again, and he moved to California in hopes of working
more often, which he did for a time. He eventually met and began courting the love of his life, a
woman who encouraged him to get back into the industry and follow his
dreams. She eventually became his wife. Irina, is the most positive
force in his life. Right behind him, standing with him at every
juncture of his journey to succeed in Show Business. He resumed working
in 2004, even still, Jody was not taking chances, relaxing and working
part time at first. He credits Irina now and for the future, with any
good fortune that may come. So far, the future is looking pretty bright
for Jody. Work is coming in and the credits are building. Up and coming
is his hope for the now. Success, his goal for the
future.
