Ben Johnson(LXI)
- Actor
Ben Johnson III was born in Beckley WV in November of 1986. His family moved to South Carolina, and later North Carolina, when he was very young. His father, Ben Johnson Jr. did computer work before IT jobs were plentiful, which resulted in their multiple moves. Growing up, Ben became interested in art, and eventually studied fine arts in college. As he worked his way through college, he started a part-time job at his local movie theater. He didn't know at the time this would become his career.
Ben eventually worked his way up to the General Manager position at the theater, and as he grew the business, he enlisted the help of long-time friend and aspiring director, Jared Campbell. As time progressed, the theater became the inspiration for Jared's production company, Spring Lane Studios (formerly JLD Films).
While not hard at work, Ben still appears periodically in films, and enjoys fitness, drawing and painting, and fitness. He is also a devout Christian and loves to help others.
