[edit] Biography
Wes Ramsey’s love for acting began at age 12; from that time on he knew acting would be his profession. After spending 7 years on stage at Louisville’s Walden Theatre, he enrolled and was accepted in New York’s prestigious Juilliard School in 1996. While in New York, he continued his training until he graduated in 2000 as a member of the “29th” group to have completed the program.
With a combined 10 years experience on stage, Ramsey turned his focus toward learning about the camera in the world of daytime television as Sam Spencer on CBS’s Emmy Award winning series, Guiding Light. After two successful years, Wes headed West with hopes of capturing his childhood dreams in Hollywood.
In Los Angeles, Wes quickly began making a name for himself when he was cast to star in his first feature film as Christian, a WEHO party boy in Latter Days, an independent film about love, faith and redemption. Latter Days was released in January 2004 to well respected reviews relevant to the movie's theme and cast alike.
