Biography of Randall Rutledge
The singer, songwriter, actor, and Recording Artist – Randall Rutledge

I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps on December 5, 1978, with two tours of overseas duty under my belt, a career in the military was out of the question. So at the completion of my tour of duty with the Marines, it was off to Hollywood on January 22, 1982. After about a year, I started picking up extra work in major motion pictures such as Scarface, Karate Kid, Rhinestone, as well as TV shows, commercials, music videos, etc.
