Chapter 1:

     Xavier Rodney was born in a small unassuming town of Brooklyn NY. There he was raised to be not only a gentleman, but a scholar of vast  proportions. He learned the ways of "The Jack of all Trades" at an early age, but it wasn't until he found the gift of 'laughter' that he knew his true calling. Tom Foolery. Knowing full well that the business of acting is a competitive and challenging field, Xavier decided there needed to be more behind the scenes than just sitting and waiting. Therefore, attending Stony Brook University, he studied Computer Graphics, Theater, and Production with some of the brightest of his time. Now, He has had the great fortune to not only work in front of the camera, but behind as well.

     Gifted with a insatiable wit, Xavier enjoys the happiness and laughter of others, and spends his time with family and friends helping where ever he can. In such actions, he has touched the lives of children through the efforts of not only both peer education groups "Swallow This!" and "Stories of Substance" but also in "Surviving the Streets", a gang prevention movie. These works have given Xavier great joy to know that he is doing something good to give back to the youth of this time, and that it will make a difference. He is not afraid to get his hands dirty in any situation, unless of course it  is actual dirt, as he is deathly afraid of it*.
