A native of San Diego, Johnny is the second of four children born to
Susan and Albert Chavez. A lead role in a 7th grade musical helped
create a love of theatre. After attending Santana High School in the
East County of San Diego Johnny took jobs in the construction and
trucking industries, finally settling in with a large general
engineering contractor. After 10 years he became restless and resigned
to start a transportation business of his own. The business was a
success and before too long Johnny was looking for another challenge.
In the 90s, the burgeoning San Diego film and television industry
attracted his interest and after doing extra roles on Pensacola "wings
of gold", How to Marry a Billionaire, and Blood Money. Now living in
Studio City, California he is member of the IndependAnt Players, and is
regularly cast in local Shakespearean productions. In 2006 Johnny had a
starring role in the Sundance award winning film "Quinceanera"
