Adam Parker(IX)

Adam Daniel Parker was born in Belleville, Illinois, in 1978, but raised in Tampa, Florida, from ages 1-9. At 10, he was back in IL. He has always enjoyed acting, movie making, writing and making music most of all. During high school, he started making video shorts and one-man-band studio music projects. In college, with his close friends, he made a comedy skit show called "awful," which aired on campus TV. After college it was back to Belleville, where he worked as a beer deliverer and cardiovascular technician, while still making music and movies. His biggest success was having two of his movies (Helleville and UN-Happy Birthday) which he made with close friends and family, air at the local movie theater, The Lincoln. At age 32, he made the move to Los Angeles, to pursue the business full time. His ultimate goal and main reason for going out there, was and still is, to make a career and really good money from film and television, in order to help as many animal rescue and disabled children charities as possible. He has always been involved in animal rescue and rehabilitation thanks to his mom, and greatly wants to help sick and disabled children organizations. He pursued the business strong in L.A., made some really good strides, but went flat broke after a year and a half. He spent every dollar he had and made, towards "making it," but he didn't, so he moved back to IL., to be with family and friends while financially starting over. He plans on getting back to L.A. as soon as possible to pick up where he left off. He tremendously thanks his mom, dad, close family, close friends, CA roommates, co-workers, pets, and all the other people and pets in his life that have passed. They've all helped and still help in his ambitions, focus, and purpose.
