About James

  • Member sinceJun 22, 2007
AS an African American actor, I have a smooth, easy "everyman" voice. My natural speech reflects no distinctive region or race. I am capable however of slipping into a variety of "Black" or regional voices. I can do characters , young people and comedy for film or cartoons.

BIOGRAPHY James Watson has enjoyed a working career through four decades in San Francisco, New York and Hollywood. He trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (Visiting the U.S.) and has performed with major theater companies such as “The American Conservatory Theater” in San Francisco, and “The Mark Taper Forum” in Los Angeles. Mr. Watson has directed and Produced with his own theater company, appeared in 12 feature films, guest starred and appeared in over 90 television shows, commercials, T.V. films and mini-series. “In the 1970’s through the 1980’s Mr. Watson established himself as an “A list” actor in demand by the networks when few roles existed for minority actors. His guest appearances on MANNIX, THE MOD SQUAD, KOJACK, LOVE AMERICAN STYLE, GOOD TIMES, SANFORD AND SON etc. as well as re- occurring regular roles on QUINCY and with Nell Carter in “GIMME A BREAK” helped establish the face of the African American actor in TV and paved the way for others to follow.”* During his adventures Mr. Watson has been fortunate to co-star with the celebrated talents of Edward G. Robinson, Leslie Caron, Michael Crichton, Mary Tyler Moore, Candice Bergen, Red Fox, Rob Reiner, James Coburn, Jeff Bridges and Sidney Poitier in “THE ORGANIZATION”, and in Paramount’s “AIRPLANE II”. Recent Television credits have included “THE DISTRCT”, “STRONG MEDICINE” and “MEDIUM”. Mr. Watson has established a production company, Vision Entertainment, and with associates, Producer Renee Valente and Director Oz Scott is writing and developing feature films, stage and television projects. (* Except Oakland Tribune) I've trained with the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (London), Staff from The American Conservatory Thaerter in San Francisco, taught and coached acting professionally and at various film/TV studios. I pride myself with a good work ethic. I consider myself to have good social skills, be a hard worker. I'm patient and responsible. I enjoy myself on the job. I'm creative as an actor/writer and good at ad libbing, improvisation and spontaneity.
