Oren Williams is an American actor, writer, producer, and director. His first role was on the award-winning series "ER" with Eriq La Salle. That same year at the age of five he went on to co-star in Ice Cube's film "The Player's Club" with Jamie Foxx and LisaRaye. Other films include "Kingdom Come" with Whoopi Goldberg, Jada Pinkett-Smith and Anthony Anderson and opposite Duane Martin and Vivica A. Fox in "Hustle and Heat".

Some of his many television credits include "Sliders", "City of Angels", "The Shield", "The Amanda Show", "ER" again, as well as recurring roles on "Any Day Now", "For Your Love" and "Chicago Hope", which earned Oren a Young Artist Award nomination for Best Supporting Young Actor. He also stared alongside Academy Award Winner, Louis Gossett, Jr. in the MOW "For Love of Olivia". He is best known on-screen for his role as Keith Ellis, alongside funny man Martin Lawrence and Wendy Raquel Robinson in the film "Rebound".

In addition, he has been seen recurring on "Cold Case", "Lincoln Heights" and most recently, "Grown Folks"; created by Bentley Kyle Evans of Martin and The Jamie Foxx Show fame.

Now holding a bachelor's degree in psychology, Oren has also moved behind the camera, creating, and producing numerous projects. In addition, he turned pen-to-paper writing for BOUNCE TV on such shows as "Family Time", "In The Cut" and "Grown Folks". Along the way he has scripted several original screenplays and pilots, two of which, have turned into series; an Untitled Comedy (Co-Created by Rugg Williams) and "Sketchy"- Urban Flix TV (Co-Created by KyLee Evans).
