John Michael Herndon was an American Actor.

Biography[]

Although Herndon was born in Linn, Missouri, he grew up in Jefferson City, Missouri. When he was little, he got into acting as a way to overcome being shy and introverted. His family convinced him to get into a "practical" major, so at SMSU (now called Missouri State), he got a bachelor's in Business and Theater, and his master's in Theater as well. After graduating from college, he dabbled around in indie films and television series. After his older sister passed, he reflected and found a sense of purpose in acting, allowing him to enjoy and appear in numerous films.

On August 3, 2022, in Hollywood, California, at 67 years of age, Herndon passed away.
