Charlie Schmidt

Charles E. Schmidt Jr. was born on August 24 in Fort Belvoire, Virginia. Ever since, this only child, army brat has written, recited, danced, acted and imagined. From writing poetry and passing notes in the 1st grade to reciting for thousands in metaphoric venues down sonnet avenues built by Shakespearean slaves to the word. A dancing machine he was in a strobe lit, turn table equipped, Funkadelic induced, teen age boy's converted soul train robot activated brick house room to the max! Eventually performing with George Clinton, Michael and Janet Jackson, Usher, Will Smith, Mya, JLo, and TLC, as well as appearing in ipod, Wendy's, VW and Burger King. Yet acting was the bug he had caught from a movie screen. The tv set was his only sibling rivalry. It was a dream to play an FBI agent in his first feature film "Collateral". "Help me help you" was his television debut as Ricco the gym manager. "God's waiting list", an indie flick where he was Lenny. Check the deleted scenes.
