Early life
Josh is an intelligent, expressive and highly motivated young man. Josh was born in Austin, Texas, where he still currently lives with his parents, Stephen and Gisele Jones. Josh’s first Television appearance was at the age of 7, where he was a Zach’s Kidcaster [3]weatherman on KTBC Fox News, in Austin, Texas. Zach Shields provided opportunities for select 7 to 12 year olds to assist with presenting the weather at KTBC. Josh worked side by side with Zach on presenting the local weather on live TV on KTBC Fox News. Though Josh performed in small roles in various plays over the next couple of years, it wasn’t until he auditioned, and was selected, as the lead male role of Mr. Warbucks, in Annie the musical, at the age of 10, that his parents started to take note of his acting talent. In 2014, Josh was selected by a large local Church as the lead model for some of their promotional marketing materials. Josh aggressively and relentlessly pushed his parents to secure Josh an agent to assist him with his acting career. His parents finally consented when Josh reached the age of 12, and Josh is now represented by K-Hall Agency[4], in Austin, Texas.
