At the age of 12, without telling his parents, Josh printed his own personal
business cards and hired his own agent. This landed him his first part in a
nationally run commercial for Dreyer's/Edy's Ice Cream entitled "The Dancing
Baby." Due to the popularity of the Dreyer's Cloe Award winning commercial, Josh
was tapped for his first feature film role in Columbia/Tri-Star's "Baby Geniuses."
His television credits include Ally McBeal, where he plays the part of Oren,
a young attorney of prodigy stature, and the arch nemesis of Calista Flockhart's
character. He is also featured in the A&E miniseries P.T. Barnum, in which
he plays the lead role of "Tom Thumb," and in Poltergeist: The Legacy for Showtime.
Evans played the young Grinch in Imagine Entertainment's "The Grinch," starring
Jim Carrey.
Josh received his first award, for best scene stealer for his role as Timmy,
at the 16th Annual Soap Opera Digest Awards. A native of Hayward, California,
Josh was born on January 10. He is currently attending high school, and is
working on a book about his own life experiences as well as a series of
children's books called "Learning Little by Little: Life Lessons for Little Ones."
