James Glorioso Jr is a New York native born in Queens and raised upstate in Wappinger Falls by his parents Theresa and James Glorioso. He currently lives with his Wife, Courtney, and kids Leonardo and Allison in Amsterdam, NY. James graduated Dutchess Community College with a Criminal Justice degree and spent most of his life working in the public sector in law enforcement, and in the private sector in retail security management.

James made the transition to acting in December of 2018 after a series of interesting events led him to a background role on the "Untitled Ailes Project". Since then, James has done many roles including body double, Stand in and recently his first principal role. James joined SAGAFTRA in July and is producing his first original screen play.

In addition to his acting career, James has encouraged his son Leonardo Glorioso to act and enjoys spending time with him on set. Leonardo has recently joined James on set together in God Friended Me (2018) and The Village (2019).

When he isn't acting, James spends time with his family, working on their investment properties, skiing, golfing, and enjoying the outdoors in upstate NY.
