Ruty is an American writer, model and film & voice actor. His love of cinema and acting career began at three years old when his mother, an Air Force Captain and middle school teacher, began entering him in pageants in his home state of Alabama. These early experiences enhanced his love for the stage and started him acting in local theater groups.
His first taste of acting came playing Howard Blair in Inherit the Wind at the Martin Theater in Panama City, Florida. Ruty embedded himself within the ensemble and began being cast in productions like Fiddler on the Roof, Shootout at Hole-in-the-Wall, Cinderella and Aesop's Fables. His youth was spent traveling while auditioning throughout the east coast. An avid sports lover, Ruty spent his free time focused karate, basketball, football, and track & field and scored multiple scholarships, deciding to enroll at Florida State. However, before graduating high school, tragedy struck on September 11, 2001 and Ruty decided it was his duty to help defend America. After graduation he joined the United States Army as a Combat Medic and served proudly throughout the war, deploying with an Aviation Battalion.
After his tour of duty, Ruty returned to Florida State to pursue his Master's Degree all the while booking auditions and filling nearly any moment not in study working in front of the camera. In his first eight months in Hollywood, Ruty booked spots with Pizza Hut and AT&T, as well as a principle role in the Warner Brother's film, "Argo" directed by Ben Affleck. He has appeared in or voiced on shows like "ABC's Baby Daddy", Brad Pitt & David Ayers' "Fury". He is a member of Veterans in Film and Television (VFT) and American Legion Post 43 Hollywood.
Ruty also enjoys screenwriting and submits his work to internships, contests and fellowships. He pursues this course whenever not acting, and has written multiple feature films and TV pilots, earning his way into the WGA's Veteran's Writers Fellowship and LACMA's Film Make
