LaDarian Raymond

On December 2, 1983, LaDarian Raymond was born in Statesboro, Ga. He was raised in a single parent home by his father. Through many trials and tribulations with his father, he remained focused and managed to graduate from high school with a full basketball scholarship to attend college. During college he played basketball, participated in track and field, and he was also the Vice President of the Psychology Club in ’03-’04. In 2007, he graduated from Edward Waters College with a psychology degree and a minor in political science. He was also a Dektronic’s Basketball Academic All-American and he graduated Magna Cum Laude (3.7GPA).  As a youngster, he participated in little sketches and musicals at school and he could remember how fun it was to do it. With no acting experience and pure determination, he landed his first acting gig in 2007. Being bitten by the acting bug, LaDarian began to make sacrifices just so he could act. He took a pay cut at his job and worked the graveyard shift just so he can always be available. In just five years he has been in independent films, commercials, and stage plays. He’s had roles in movies such as, “The Last Punch” and “Love N Success” featuring R&B sensation Angie Stone. He’s also shared the stage with legendary singers, such as Melba Moore and Ann Nesby. With all of his recent accomplishments, he still hasn’t lost his passion for what’s most important. Helping and inspiring others is his number one priority. Although, he loves acting, being a humanitarian is what’s dear to his heart.
