Rowland Akinduro
- Actor
A versatile, and deeply committed actor, Rowland Akinduro is proving to be one to watch.
He was born Rowland Stanley Oladele Akinduro in Vienna, Austria to Eva (Hein) Akinduro who worked as a secretary, and Henry Bamikole Akinduro, a DJ. He migrated with his mother to the United States at the age of 5. Akinduro was raised by his mother and step-father, Rene Simpkins, in the small city of Yucca Valley near Joshua Tree, California where his love for performance art was sparked early on. As an adult, he moved to the Coachella Valley attending College of the Desert to pursue his goals of acting, music and computer science. Rowland always dreamed of getting married in Hawaii and did just that to his wife Abigael Akinduro. Together, they have 3 boys: Rayden, Jace and Saber. They are fortunate to call the island of Oahu home.
With co-star roles on White Famous (Showtime), American Horror Stories (FX), and a featured appearance on Insecure (HBO), along with national commercials for brands like Ford, Vivo, and AT&T, Rowland continues to navigate the balance between artistic integrity and commercial success. His work includes live performances at the McCallum Theatre and a featured performance at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival.
