Telvin Griffin

'Telvin Griffin' (qv) was born and raised in Texarkana, Arkansas. Growing up his parents knew their son would do something within the entertainment industry but above all else, education was the number one priority in their family. He's always had a microphone in his hand talking to imaginary audiences inside his home which became natural for him. Telvin grew up in the church playing the piano while also playing the saxophone during his time in the middle and junior high school bands. While attending high school Telvin learned how to speak in front of a camera being selected as the school's news anchor for the morning announcements. After graduating high school in 2008 he attended the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, Arkansas, to study broadcast journalism where he also walked on the football team as a wide receiver for three seasons. After graduating college in 2012 he signed with his first agent in Dallas, Texas, to be closer to more acting opportunities which proved to be a great decision. In just a short span of his career, Telvin has booked many national commercials and television projects including being the National Spokesman for "Black People Meet dot com" and the Emmy Award winning comedy Blackish. His goal and purpose in life is to inspire others that if you just stick with your dreams and goals, wait on God, all of them will come true with hard work and consistency.::ATN Entertainment
