Scott Lawrence is an American actor who portrayed Art Costa in AMC's Fear The Walking Dead.

Biography

Scott was born in Los Angeles and spent a lot of his childhood with his parents on picket lines campaigning for local civil rights. His father was the executive director of the University of Southern California, Community Services Center, and his mother worked for Operation Breadbasket and other organizations dedicated to improving economic conditions of black communities.

After studying electrical engineering for two years at USC, he sat in on a friends acting class, and that lead him to audition for USC's Bachelor of Fine Arts acting conservatory the next semester. He started over as a freshman and completed the program in 1986.

In 1987, Scott earned his SAG card on the feature film "Punchline". After several equity waiver plays and TV guest stars, Scott landed his first TV series regular role as Whoopi Goldberg's son on the short lived "Bagdad Cafe". The show ended in 1990 and after a few more years in Hollywood, Scott decided to pack up and move to New York to pursue his first love, the theatre.
