Joshua Rappaport, born and raised in Los Angeles, began his professional acting career in 1975 studying with the revered teacher, Jeff Corey. He earned his SAG card in 1976. One day, in 1986, Joshua got a call from Danny Goldman, one of the busiest commercial casting directors in Los Angeles. He asked Joshua if he had ever thought about running a casting session, he hadn’t. Jeff invited Joshua to watch a session the next day and the day after that he was running the session. Joshua proceeded to run casting sessions for Danny, and various other commercial casting directors, for the next 20 years. During that time, he continued to grow and develop as an artist, studied with the brilliant acting coach Roy London, wrote for television and directed theater. In 2009, Joshua opened his own casting office, Casting Brothers, with Alan Kaminsky, and they have continued to thrive in the commercial world. He's been involved in the casting of thousands of commercials and conducted hundreds of thousands auditions. Joshua still finds working with actors to be the best part of his job!
