When your last name is "Dollar", you hear jokes all the time. As a kid, it was "Hey Richie Rich, where's your dog, Dollar?" And since Al shares a name with his Dad, the school bus driver liked to call him "50 Cent" long before the rapper was ever shot the first time. As Al was growing up, people asked if he was going to be a game show host, a used car salesman and even a porn star - "Al Dollar, make ya holla!" Of course there are always the old standards, "can I borrow a dollar?" and "you must be rich!" And for the record, it is spelled D-O-L-L-A-R, just like the money... not "just like M-O-N-E-Y!"
Born, raised and currently based in Atlanta, GA. Al Dollar knew the minute his mother dressed him as a peanut for his kindergarten promotion, he wanted to perform. Al Dollar started singing in church and would learn all of his mom's aerobic routines, which is how he discovered his love for dance! Dance classes led to his first performance of "Music Man" at the age of 12. Soon Al Dollar was taking acting classes with the Alliance Theatre and continuing to appear on theatre stages around Atlanta. Al Dollar was barely out of school when he toured with Madeline Kahn who was playing the lead in "Hello, Dolly!" What a masterclass!
While his sweet, southern charm was great for All-American storybook roles - a European tour aboard the original Love Boat, a cowboy at the Diamond Horseshoe at Walt Disney World or Alan in the "Magical World of Barbie" and even some brief appearance on "The Mickey Mouse Club" with Britney, Justin and Christina - now Al Dollar is all grown up. A skilled and versatile actor, Al Dollar can possess the charismatic and trusting, yet dangerously smart and manipulative qualities of a sex cult leader or deliver the creepy, odd and quiet introverted pervert who works at the mall during the day and trolls the internet from his mother's basement at night. Shake the eight-ball again and you get a nerdy, forensic scientist with a weird sense of humor, into cosplay and loves dead bodies. Regardless, when your name is AL DOLLAR, "More bang for your buck!" (or booking!)
