Jose-Luis Martinez Franco Ramirez Gutierrez Miranda de la Rosa Jr, or just Jose for short, and welcome to my bio! So here’s my origin, I was in born in Mexico, raised in the Southwest, and now live in New York City. I got introduced to acting at 11 when I was cast in a Halloween themed play. From there, I got to play Ren in Footloose during high school (because my hips clearly didn’t lie…. but my voice kind of did), and have somehow made it here. Prior to moving to NY, I obtained my MFA at the University of San Diego where I got to study Shakespeare and other classical texts. So not only does your boy now know a little something about Billy Shakes, but I’m also experienced in Viewpoints, Devising, Mime, Stand-Up, Stage Combat, and the godfather himself, Stanislavski. As an immigrant, I feel it’s my responsibility to help cultivate safe artistic spaces that are inclusive, stimulating, and led with love.
Y pa’ Mi Gente, me da gustó que hayan llegado a mí página. Ser un actor Latino en Estados Unidos no es fácil, pero gracias a Dios, aquí sigo echándole ganas. Sí tienen una pregunta o un comentario, con confianza mándenme un mensaje. Gracias!
