Buddy Campbell was born in the Ozark Mountains and grew up in the Arkansas River Valley. In school, acting took a backseat to sports. He acted in school plays as long as it didn't interfere with basketball, baseball, and football. After his playing days were over, he attended Arkansas Tech University. He got leads in college plays but when he graduated he thought his acting career was over. For the next twenty years or so he made a living in the real world doing "real" jobs but his love for movies never died. In 2013, he answered an open casting call for a feature film called Greater. He auditioned for the movie and was asked to play the role of a high school teacher in the movie. While he had no lines, the experience of being on a genuine movie set gave him the bug to do more of it. He decided to attend a class for new actors at Excel Models and Talent in Little Rock. The experience of working with like-minded people as well as the words of wisdom from coach Melissa Moody cemented his desire to make acting his new life goal. He was cast by producer James Wood in a short film called Hare Trigger directed by Donavon Thompson. His performance in Hare Trigger was noticed. Shortly thereafter, he was asked by director Scott McEntire to join the cast of a feature film called The Boo. Since then, he has been rolling non-stop with a string of productions that includes feature films, TV shows, web series, and commercials. He finally believes his life is on the path he was destined for and couldn't be happier with the results so far.- Producer

Tex Fletcher was born Geremino Bisceglia in Harrison, New York, the fifth of eight children. His parents, Michael (a stonemason) and Josephine, were Italian immigrants. Tex left home at age 15, joined a circus and traveled across the US and Canada. He settled in South Dakota, where he learned to handle horses and cattle, becoming a "real" cowboy. He returned to New York in the early 1930s, taking a job as a singing cowboy on radio station WFAS in White Plains. He eventually landed a job as the Cowboy Answer Man on WWOR radio in New Jersey. It was the height of the "singing cowboy" craze and Tex was heard by some Hollywood talent scouts. After one screen test, he was signed by Grand National Pictures, a "B" studio, to do a series of lower-budget westerns. However, soon after the completion of the first one, Six-Gun Rhythm (1939), Grand National went belly-up, leaving the only existing prints of the film unreleased. Tex literally "took the bull by the horns" and set out on a one-man promotional tour for the film of the Northeast US. He personally booked and traveled to each movie theater, opening the showing with a couple of songs, showing the film and then signing autographs for fans after the film was over. After this, however, Tex had no taste for Hollywood anymore and turned down all subsequent offers from other production companies to continue the series.
During World War II Tex served in the military, reaching the rank of sergeant. At the end of the war he married, and he and his wife eventually had five children: Robert, Jayne, Kathy, George and Michael. He returned to radio, night clubs (Village Barn, Manhattan) and television (ABC, NBC, WOR), and released his last album in 1964, having recorded during his career for London, Decca, Dakota and others.- Writer
