The WB Biography for
Rodney Scott,
"Will Krudski"
Rodney
Scott makes his television starring debut as a series regular on "Young
Americans."
Born in Washington, D.C., Rodney cherished his childhood in the beach resort
town of Ocean City, Md. An athletic teenager, he enjoyed playing basketball,
football and especially golf. A cousin got him hooked on the latter, and he
honed his skills and competed in the state finals during his sophmore year in
high school. However, his attention was diverted by drama in his senior year,
when he took a class on a lark and wound up starring in three plays, including
"Romeo and Juliet."
Upon graduation, he enrolled in a community college, but after one semester, he
set his sights on a show business career. At 19, to his mother's dismay, he
decided to take the scenic cross-country trip to Hollywood with three friends.
Soon after his arrival, Rodney found representation and began auditioning for
roles, while working as an usher at the Mann's Chinese Theater. When funds ran
low, he went home to Maryland for the summer and worked as a waiter. With
untarnished optimism and money in his pocket, he returned to Los Angeles in the
fall of 1998, and immediately was cast as a runaway teen on the series "Promised
Land." Several months later, he landed "Young Americans."
In his leisure time, Rodney enjoys playing golf and attending baseball and
football games. An avid traveler, he has visited most major U.S. cities and
hopes to venture to Egypt one day to see the pyramids.
