Actor, director and producer Alex Exum has appeared in numerous theater and film projects, and has displayed a versatility and range that has allowed him to showcase his talents across an array of genres.

It started in the early 90's as a founding member of the Urban Ensemble Theater Collective; a Bridgeport based non-profit theater company. Alex starred in virtually all of the Urban Ensemble’s productions, including "Urban Renewal", "American Labor", "Potlatch", and "Circles Of Desire".

In addition to his work with Urban Ensemble, Alex has appeared in numerous productions in the tri-state area. Some of his most memorable roles include the snobbish George in "A Raisin In the Sun" the evil Frank Charles in the frontier drama "Flyin’ West", the lovable Doaker in "The Piano Lesson" and  the mysterious Ardell in Vietnam shocker "The Basic Training of Pavlo Hummel."  

Over the last several years Alex has worked on several independent and feature films, including "Cupcake", "The Crystal Ballroom" and most recently the feature film "Assault of the Sasquatch" with Synthetic Cinema Int'l slated for release on DVD, Netflix and Amazon Video On Demand March 1 of 2010.

Alex also recently fulfilled a long time dream; to direct a full length play in New York City, with the musical drama "The Composition of Herman Melville" at the Metropolitan Playhouse American Legacy Theater in the East Village.

While Alex continues to strengthen his craft, he's just as busy behind the scenes, developing his own theater and film projects for his production company.  The company has already produced two theatrical productions, and is currently developing several theater and film projects.

Exum currently lives in Los Angeles.
