John Toon is a versatile actor who has carved a niche for himself through his dynamic performances in both television and indie films. His comedic talents were most notably showcased in the viral "Pooph" commercial, where his larger-than-life personality and humorous delivery helped the product gain widespread attention.

Born in Dearborn, Michigan, Toon began his acting journey in theater at Henry Ford Community College.
