Biography

Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, Mr. Washington is best recognized for his breakthrough role as Donald Jordan on Tina Fey and Robert Carlock's acclaimed NBC comedy 30 Rock. He also appeared in the third season of Netflix's Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt alongside Titus Burgess. His television credits include Glee, Law & Order, The Jury, 100 Questions, 10 Things I Hate About You, Wendell & Vinny, and Hope and Faith, among others.

On stage, he has performed in the international sensation Mamma Mia! (original Broadway company), the 2005 Tony Award-winning revival of La Cage Aux Folles, and Stephen Sondheim's Saturday Night at Second Stage. At La Jolla Playhouse, his work includes The Wiz directed by Des McAnuff, Memphis directed by Christopher Ashley, Letters to Obama, and Most Wanted.

Mr. Washington wrote the political drama Blueprints to Freedom: an Ode to Bayard Rustin, which explores the life of the openly gay Civil Rights leader and his role in organizing the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. The play had successful developmental workshops at the McCarter Theatre and La Jolla Playhouse under Phylicia Rashad's direction, followed by sold-out world premiere co-productions at La Jolla Playhouse and Kansas City Repertory Theatre in 2015. It received the Outstanding New American Play award from the Edgerton Foundation, the San Diego Critics Circle Award for Outstanding New Play, and Outstanding Leading Actor in a Play for Mr. Washington’s portrayal of Rustin.

He is currently writing a stage play about Dr. Maya Angelou at the request of her estate and The Caged Bird Foundation. On film, he appeared as Richard alongside Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal in Ed Zwick's Love and Other Drugs.

Mr. Washington holds a B.F.A. from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts with a minor in Journalism. He is a Presidential Scholar in the Arts, serves as a National Reviewer and Masterclass instructor for the National YoungArts Foundation, and is a member of the Broadway Inspirational Voices.
