Jackson Whittier is...

an Actor, Director, Playwright, and Poet born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. In 2009, Jackson told his parents that he was going to "...win an Oscar, like Justin Bieber" and artists around the world have admired that creativity ever since. Jackson is currently based on Long Island, NY where he is set to finish his B.F.A in Acting in May (2025).

Jackson is a proud guncle, little brother, and favorite son. He is also the biggest Nintendo fan on the planet, with a particular life-long love for The Legend of Zelda franchise which singlehandedly changed the trajectory of his toddler life. At age five, Jackson was diagnosed with Epilepsy, with video games becoming a large and joy-filled part of a non-convential childhood.

As an artist, Jackson has taken pride in his ability to transform that childhood creativity into visionary ingenuinity. He is a firm proponet of the idea that storytelling is a social responsibility that must be treated as such, and he has been instilled with the belief that a sense of social awareness must underscore all that he does. Jackson wants to change the world, through art. Watch out, Biebs.
