Actor and comedian Kel Mitchell has been a beloved household name for almost two decades. He’s been frequenting the big and small screen since his 1994 debut on hit Nickelodeon series “All That”. Following “All That”, Mitchell’s lovable personality and eccentric characters took off and he soared through the 90s with a four-season run on Nick's “Kenan & Kel”, Paramount’s “Good Burger”, Universal’s “Mystery Men” (Ben Stiller, William H. Macy), and guest appearances on ABC’s “Sister Sister” and WB’s “The Steve Harvey Show”. He currently voices skateboarding germaphobe Jay-Jay on the Rob Dyrdek & NickToons cartoon series, “Wild Grinders” and the cool teen mechanic “Dutch” on the Disney XD cartoon series, “Motorcity”.
Mitchell grew up on the south side of Chicago and began his acting career at the age of 12 with the ETA Creative Arts Foundation. His outstanding performance in Eden at the historic Victory Gardens Theater caught the eye of a prominent talent agent. At the age of 14, he got the opportunity of a lifetime. He flew to Florida to be on the then new network for kids, Nickelodeon. He beat out thousands of other kids and was cast in what soon became a groundbreaking show, “All That”. He was an original cast member from 1994-1999. He followed with spin-off series “Kenan & Kel” from 1996-2000, as well as Paramount’s major motion picture “Good Burger”.
Mitchell was honored with a Cable Ace Award in 1997 for Best Actor in a comedy series for his work in the Nickelodeon series “Kenan and Kel” and also honored with a Kids Choice Award in 1999 for Best Actor in a comedy series for both Nickelodeon series “All That” and “Kenan and Kel”. Mitchell later earned two Daytime Emmy Award nominations for his voice work as the lovable “T-Bone” in the award-winning PBS series and book series “Clifford the Big Red Dog” in 2001 and again in 2002. He also appeared on season 28 of "Dancing with the Stars".
Having a genuine understanding of today’s youth and roots in kid’s television, Mitchell speaks to youth across the country encouraging them to follow their dreams, to walk by faith and not by sight, and live a Godly lifestyle. Mitchell is involved in putting on and hosting uplifting concerts in inner cities, teaming up with major Gospel and Christian music artists. He is also the spokesperson for “The Black College Expo”, providing numerous scholarships for students throughout the year. Mitchell and his wife Asia Lee-Mitchell were recently honored with an award from the “Carson Black Chambers of Commerce” for their work in the city of Compton, California, providing a safe program for kids to show off their creative talents in a dance variety live show created by the couple called, “The Back House Party”.
