Autrey Germaine Jimerson aka AJ, was born in Corsicana, Texas on June 23, 1972. He and his family moved to El Paso when he was 5. When he was a young teenager they moved to Germany for a few years with his mom, JoAnn Jackson and step-dad, Army Sgt. John Jackson. In 1989 they moved back to El Paso before moving back to Corsicana in 1992.
In 2010 AJ and his then fiancée Lisa Morgan, moved to Ennis, Texas. While living in Ennis AJ was approached one day in a comic book store by the owner/independent filmmaker, Tommy Slama. Tommy told AJ he was exactly what he was looking for in his first movie (2011) Weedwolf. He wanted him to play a "black bad-ass" named Junebug. AJ being a huge movie buff and has always wanted to act of course said yes. The movie and the character Junebug were such a hit that Tommy asked AJ to star in his next film (2012) Alabama Sasquatch, which was centered around the character Junebug, in a midquel (not prequel, not sequel) to Weedwolf. With Alabama Sasquatch being another hit, Tommy made a third film (2014) American Freakshow, with a cameo from Junebug. During the filmings Tommy learned that AJ was a great rapper/singer/songwriter and asked him to write some songs for these movies. AJ wrote and performed, 3 songs for Weedwolf, 1 for Alabama Sasquatch and 4 for American Freakshow.
AJ and Lisa, after 4 years together married on October 5, 2013. Between the two of them they have 5 children and 2 grandsons.
