| J.August Information ..... |
| J.August was born in Washington DC on August 28th 1973. His
birth name was Jaime Augusto Richards III. but when he turned to acting he
changed his name to J.August Richards because no one could pronounce his
name! A 1987 Michael Jackson concert convinced him he had to be in the
entertainment business so later on he moved down to Los Angeles where he
attended the Southern California University. He enrolled in an acting workshop
after graduating taught by Eriq LaSalle (ER). J. August then landed the
role of playing Charles Gunn on the WB show Angel after having numerous
other TV appearances. First the role was only for a couple of episodes,
then it was extended so that J.August could appear as a regular on the
show, which is where he currently works. Notable TV Appearances .....
