[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 in New York’s prestigious Juilliard School in 1996. He graduated, in 2000, as a member of the 29th "group" (class) 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 serial, Guiding Light. After two successful years Wes headed West, with hopes of realizing his childhood dreams of 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 respectful reviews relevant to the movie's theme and cast alike.
Once Wes completed filming, he secured guest starring roles on one of CBS’s highest rated dramas, CSI: Miami and, soon thereafter, WB Television Network’s Charmed. By the time Latter Days reached theaters, Wes was starring alongside Luis Guzmán in a new Fox series, Luis, in the part of the artist/boyfriend, Greg. In the midst of the momentum of his new show, Wes took the lead in promoting Latter Days across the country, as it won audience awards at numerous film festivals, including the Outfest Critics' Choice Award and HBO's OUT-standing First Narrative Feature citation.
Ramsey currently resides in Los Angeles.
