As a writer, director, and actor, I stumbled upon these hidden talents after obtaining a basketball injury
in college. Suffering a broken wrist and unable to fulfill my dream of being a professional athlete. I’ve toured the world as an Ebony and JET Fashion Fair model and while on tour, I developed a passion for writing. Shortly after I began my own Production company Richard Gallion Entertainment and acting career. As one who understands discipline and consistency, I was fortunate to garner roles on FOX’S Proven Innocent, Chicago PD, Chicago Med, Showtime’s The Chi, USA’s Sirens, and FOX’s Empire directed by Lee Daniels, featuring Taraji P. Henson and Terrence
Howard has opened up massive doors. I’ve also starred in movies like Transformers 4, Black Coffee, Nothing Like Thanksgiving, and more. My greatest weapon is being able to write, Produce, and direct my own content. Not only do I create jobs for myself, but also 40 plus families every time I do a production. To date I’ve 13 shows and now averaging 10 shows a year. As of current my most successful show that’s been able to attract eyes and capture hearts world wide is my show 1800vs2020. It’s been covered by WGN, CBS, NBC, Heart of Hollywood Magazine, Broadway world and many more. 1800vs2020 will be playing live June 18th at 2pm&7pm. For more info go to www.richardgallion.com
