Did you know this about John Robert Powers Sacramento?

John Robert Powers Sacramento has been the big break for a lot of successful actors and models, but did you know that one of those exciting stars is Josh Duhamel.  Josh came to his first audition in early 1997, and our own Hank Ritter personally saw his potential, and working with him on both acting technique as well as runway.  Josh, under Hank and JRP Sacramento's tutelage, went to convention that summer, and walked away with the "Male Model of the Year" award, narrowly beating out some guy named Ashton Kutcher.  Josh then went on to star on "General Hospital", "Las Vegas", "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton", and the huge hit films "Transformers" and "Transformers 2".  Josh is an incredibly nice guy, and everyone at John Robert Powers Sacramento is so proud to say he got his big break here.  Way to go Josh!
