Born in Chicago, Illinois, Jerod Howard is an American actor of stage and screen. Raised in the Lake View area he attended St. Alphonsus Academy, host to the Athenaeum Theater & Performing Arts Center. His first exposure to acting would be watching films at the local Music Box Theater. Features to include Young Frankenstein (1974), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) among others. In time, he would play a part in one of these stories himself... on-stage.

Receiving a best supporting actor award for playing Billy Bibbit in an amateur stage production of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", Jerod was then approached by a local talent agent. He signed on and began working with various theatrical companies around the mid-west region.

Following a Chicago debut in "Pulp Fiction" - stage adaptation Azusa Productions (Preston Bradley Center), and a guest-artist turn with the Chicago Writers Group (Stage 773), Jerod expanded his efforts to include Film and TV. 2005 brought background experiences for television & film, but an Indie thriller would provide a principle part. Opposite Judith O'Dea, aka Barbara of George A. Romero's groundbreaking Night of the Living Dead (1968), Jerod discovered a pivotal role in Elliot Hamilton of October Moon (2005) (Tempe Entertainment). In 2008 he returned for a sequel, October Moon 2: November Son (2008) (Ariztical Entertainment). Barring mixed reviews, October Moon continues to grow a diverse fan-base. It received international distribution prior to streaming platforms and has been featured by Kings of Horror. *Both titles are now available via Amazon Prime.

Stage credits include Jay for "Thee Trinity" by Emmy nominated producer/writer Rick Roberts (Premier - Royal George Theater), the Washer for "Furnace" written by Christian Rayner (Premiere - Stage Left Theater), and Admetus in "Alcestis Doesn't Live Here Anymore" by Lynne McMahon (Clockwise Theater). Other credits include... "The Shadow Box" by Michael Cristofer "Killers" by John Olive, and the title role in "The BenchMark" also written by Roberts.

Other credits include vocalist for a southeastern region tour with the contemporary christian artist group "Tell the World", appearing at the Grand Ol' Opry, Walt Disney World, and SeaWorld. Lead vocalist for groups to include Stand, Easy Action, Take Six, Anodyne Falls as well as the vocal duo of Hayden and Howard and solo jazz/standard combo work.

Howard appeared on-screen for Safe Inside (2017) and recently on-stage as Mortimer Brewster for "Arsenic & Old Lace", Danny in "Almost, Maine" also featuring Michael Farca, and the Baritone role in "Songs For a New World" by Jason Robert Brown (Mother Road Productions).

Most recent, Jerod reunited with writer/director Bennie Woodell for Into the Devil's Reach (2021) released 2021, has been involved in production efforts for "Terminus", an early work by Mark O'Rowe (Premiere - Abbey Theatre - Dublin, Ireland), and 2022 will see him as Rooster in "The Shawshank Redemption" written for the stage by Owen O'Neill and Dave Johns.
