Robert Murray

Robert Murray was born in Philadelphia, Pa. to Robert and Doris Murray on July, 28 1973. The house rule was "You didn't have to be no tough guy, but you 'aint gonna be no punk". Boxing, Martial arts, Pool and cards were male rites of passage in the Murray clan. At an early age he moved to Willingboro, N.J. 70's music, poetry and dance were early influences. However, hip hop music was his first taste as an entertainer. As a rapper he went by the handle M.C. Blaze. Outgrowing the name, but still a blazing spirit, he then called himself Brotha Blaze. Brotherhood being one thing that he can offer to all of humanity. After graduating high school he enlisted into the USMC, serving as a military policeman. Since then he has held many occupations including but not limited to, Exotic Dancer, Corrections Officer, and Cargo Technician. Such a diversified life experience endowed him with many stories to tell and many ways to tell them. It was by a whim that Robert Brotha Blaze Murray happened upon a set for a short film for the first time. Hell, why not?..he figured. Little did he know that the acting bug would bite so viciously. He has since gone on to secure roles in other short and full feature films. Oh, and let's not forget about theater. Don't all Leos feel at home on stage? He threw himself into the craft and never looked back. Not only is his personality and vision compelling to see onstage and screen, but his pen creates as well. Mr. Murray authored his first book Memoirs of a Neophyte in Oct. 2012. A work that discusses approaching the spiritual path realistically and practically. Other books of poetry and novels are in the works. He also writes stage plays and screenplays. It's great to be an actor that can get material but god bless the actor that can create his or her own. Robert resides in the Philadelphia area and is fortunate to book work at home and abroad. He's been happily divorced since 07. Yes, you read that correctly. If it's one thing that he's proven and endeavors to prove to audiences is that you can reinvent yourself and create the life you wish, no matter what you've been through. The self-proclaimed busiest man is show business invites you enjoy his projects. If by chance you happen to meet the man, there's no need to be so formal. He doesn't mind if you call him Rob. Yet if you consider him a brother, Brotha Blaze will do just fine.
