Rory Ross was born near Harrison, AR on June 11, 1991. He is the firstborn of five and has four wonderful step-sisters. Growing up in Lockridge, IA, he decided the farming life was not for him & took off to Seattle, Washington in 2006 to form his own path. From there he began his high school academics at Auburn Adventist Academy and graduated with High Honors along with numerous academic awards. He received a scholarship to Walla Walla University, where he completed his Bachelor's of Science Degree in Business in 2014 & soon afterward began his pursuit of acting. Since then, Rory has been featured on Linkin Park's Music Video: Heavy, The Librarians, New Girl, & has performed as a Co-Star in the Indie Horror/Thriller: 7Witches.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
