Erskine C. Johnson III was born on June 4th in Conway, South Carolina but raised in a small town called Bucksport. From the time he was born his family knew he was destine for greatness. Being the baby of his family, Erskine wanted to follow in the footsteps of his big time football star cousins. He begin playing football at the age of 7. He knew right then and there that he would be doing this for the rest of his life. While growing up Erskine wasn't like the other kids in the neighborhood because he was born with severe asthma. Due to quite a few episodes of attacks one that led him to death, but the good Lord was not ready for him yet. From that day forward he knew God kept him here for a purpose to change the world. When he got to high school he felt it was time to live in his own shadow by doing something different. By being so dramatic and funny he started taking up drama at Conway High School. Acting was very much easy for Mr. Johnson by portrayed roles of just about anyone. From Nerdy teacher, the thug, a little baby, to the lover boy. When he wasn't on stage, Erskine was taking care of his business in the classroom and on the field so he would receive a full scholarship in football or academics. Not knowing what he wanted to major in, South Carolina State head Coach Buddy Pough, was recruiting him and also came to his senior year play and was amazed of the talents this young man had. So with discussing the theater program they had and also all the championships they won, Erskine decided to become a South Carolina State Bulldog. With being one of number 1 recruits coming out of South Carolina in 2009, Erskine really kicked everything in gear. He had the highest GPA on the football team, winning back to back MEAC championships, president of the theater, and also on tour with a phenomenal stage play "Taking A Stand" who also had recognition in the NY Times. He felt everything was just falling in place until it was God time 2 talk to him. Erskine had 2 back to back injuries to where he couldn't play at all his junior or senior season due to tearing every ligament in his knee (Jr Year) and tearing his labrum in his shoulder (Sr. Year). He was so devastated that he could not understand why this would happen to him, but it was because he started to put all his eggs into one basket. After making the hardest decision of his life to not play football anymore, God really started shinning his light on him with his journey in acting. From being a San Diego Saber on The Game (BET) his last semester of college, Co-Starring With Robin Givins, Shawn Blakemore, and Demetria McKinney in the stage play "Church Girl" Erskine finally heard God say "Football was the way for you to get the tools on becoming a man and getting an education, acting is what i have for you." Since then Erskine has been on numerous movies, TV shows, music videos and stage plays with well known A list Celebrities. The biggest thing he has done is landing a role with the outstanding Tyler Perry, on his hit TV Show "The Haves and the Have Nots" Now he is partnering with Calhoun Cornwell with his production company "Da Creator Productions" producing and directing a TV/web show called "Black After These Messages" and feature film called "Lost but Found" and "Orangeburg 68" His vision with being an actor, producer, and director is just changing the industry in a positive light. "I want to bring to the table what people used to love on TV and not what their watching now. I am allowing God to work through me to do what he has blessed me to do and also serve him at the same time." Hide
