Adam William Zastrow was born in Milwaukee, WI. The son of a machinist, he was instilled with a classic mid-west work ethic that included a focus on academia. He apprenticed as an electrician and worked commercial and industrial settings while discovering his passion and need to act. Making a name for himself in the Milwaukee theater scene, the jump to camera was an enlightening and exciting step. Shortly after the spring'12 release of Shots Fired, he moved to the Los Angeles area to further his career.
