A little bit about Theodore 

Born and raised in San Pedro, California, Theodore began his career at a young age, landing his first big break at just 11 years old as a series regular on “Back in the Game” for ABC opposite James Caan, Maggie Lawson, and Josie Totah.  He has been working steadily ever since. When Theodore isn’t on set you can find him playing basketball at the local YMCA, surfing, roller skating, collecting sneakers, and he loves In-N-Out Burger. Over the years Theodore has supported California’s Heal the Bay Coastal Cleanup, which inspired him to have a deep love and care for the ocean, beaches, and coastlands.  He has also volunteered over the past years with Habitat for Humanity, helping families across southern California build and improve their homes.
