 Bill Cobbs <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0167850/>  (TV: NBC's Go On,
Harry's Law, Criminal Minds & dozens more. FILM: A Night at the Museum, The
Body Gaurd) was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, where his parents were
hard-working people, who instilled in him a sense of self-reliance and
humility. As an amateur actor in the city's Karamu House Theater, he
starred in the Ossie Davis <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001115/> play
"Purlie Victorious". Cobbs was an Air Force radar technician for eight
years; he also worked in office products at IBM and sold cars in Cleveland.
In 1970, at the age of 36, he left for New York to seek work as an actor.
There he turned down a job in the NBC sales department in order to have
time for auditions. He supported himself by driving a cab, repairing office
equipment, selling toys, and performing odd jobs. His first professional
acting role was in "Ride a Black Horse" at the Negro Ensemble Company. From
there, he appeared in small theater productions, street theater, regional
theater and at the Eugene O'Neill Theater. His first television credit was
in "Vegetable Soup" <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0166063/> (1976), a New
York public television educational series, and he made his feature film
debut <http://www.imdb.com/search/name?bio=debut> in The Taking of Pelham
One Two Three <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072251/> (1974). In his free
time, Cobbs enjoys music, reading, and playing his drums. He lives in New
York City and Los Angeles, California. Bill currently has 4 feature films
in post production to be released in 2012 & 2013 -  Oz: The Great and
Powerful <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1623205/> Master Tinker, 2012 The
Last Letter <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2221362/> Pastor Barnes, 2012 Vampires
