He's taught acting to hundreds of actors, in classes across the country, from Los Angeles to Florida, from Seattle to San Francisco, from Washington D.C. to Guam (yes, Guam!). He has auditioned more than 15,000 actors for various productions and his clients appear on television, Film, & on Broadway, daily.Since the mid-1980s Scott's been hired by actors, studios, and production companies to Coach, Direct, and Produce shows for, hundreds of accomplished actors, including: Donna Mills (Knotts Landing), Steve Allen, Jayne Meadows, Pat Morita (Karate Kid), Brooke Burns (Dog Eat Dog), Dominic Purcell (Prison Break), Charles Grodin, Catherine Oxenberg, Susan Blakesley, Richard Kline, Vincent Gardenia, Charles Grodin, Florence Henderson, Robert Reed, John Astin, Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., Ted Lange (Love Boat), Denver Pyle (Dukes of Hazard), Timothy Bottoms, Tony Bennett & many others.In 1994, after living and working in Los Angeles for more than 25 years, Scott moved to Hawai'i with his wife, Jeanne, in order to raise their (soon to be) two children in a safe and sane environment. They opened their school in 2000, to train actors for film and television. Scott's clients include series-regulars on shows like LOST, North Shore, and Baywatch and actors appearing in: Indiana Jones & the Crystal Skull, Hawaii Five-0, ER, 50 First Dates, Pearl Harbor, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Rundown, Tears of the Sun, Blue Crush, Lilo & Stich, and many more. In 2013 Scott opened a second studio, this one in Portland, Oregon. Within a year or so almost all of his Portland students were regularly booking roles on TV shows like Grimm, Portlandia, and The Librarians.Scott began his career in professional theatre as a young child, portraying a "Munchkin" in his father, Herb Rogers' Equity production of The Wizard Of Oz, in 1965. Being bitten by the theatre bug at such a young age led to the inevitable pursuit of a career in the theatre. After studying Directing in college and working as an actor, Scott began traveling the country working as a Production Stage Manager. After stage-managing seventy or so Equity shows, he began directing original plays in small theaters around Hollywood, including two for Jerome Lawrence (Author of "Mame" and "Inherit the Wind"). He quickly developed a reputation for drawing first class performances from his actors, and always opening his shows on time and under budget. Scott has never been out of work since. He has gone on to direct many Equity shows around the country including; the Los Angeles Premiere of A Prelude To A Kiss; Les Liaisons Dangereuses starring Donna Mills; Nanette Fabray in the West Coast Premiere of The Cemetery Club, and Jayne Meadows in the highly acclaimed production of Neil Simons' Lost In Yonkers, about which The Los Angeles Times' wrote "Scott Rogers staging at La Mirada Theatre is a more moving experience than the National Touring Company...".
