George Dinsmore | Actor

About Me

George started early with a stint on Romper Room at age 5 and played the title role in Dr. Doolittle in first grade. In fourth grade he toured with the Florida Singing Songs Boy Choir. By high school he was more interested in sports, playing football and breaking the school record in the 50 Freestyle swim, but still had lead roles in two productions. After college he owned three Subway restaurants before travelling the country as a computer consultant. George settled in South Carolina where he rediscovered the stage and soon found himself adding films, commercials, voice overs, as well as hosting a web series.
