Justin Marchert
Host
Justin is the creator of "Big Bother" and couldn't be more thrilled that this ridiculous idea has somehow made it from the page to the internet. Though he graduated with a journalism degree from the University of Illinois, Justin soon found himself pursuing acting in Chicago, in such plays as "Robin Hood," "1984" and "You Can't Take It With You" (Which made an England tour). After making the big move to Los Angeles and performing in indies and web series like "Pesky Pike," he found his writing background calling him again. Before he knew it, Justin was directing "Big Bother." His most recent TV appearance was on "CSI:NY," where he played a slain film director. Go figure.
