Josiah Paul was born Josiah Paul Schreiber in Newport News, Virginia and is of Native American and Irish descent. His parents Kimberly and Eric moved him and his younger sister around the country during his early childhood until his Father eventually retired as a MSgt. in the USAF. In 2002, after his father's retirement, Josiah and his family moved to Metro-Atlanta, Georgia, where he still lives today. After high school, Josiah dove head first into the entertainment industry, completely submerging himself in the culture. As many actors do, he started his career as a background actor working as an extra on many TV shows, TV movies and feature films around Atlanta. He quickly worked into more featured roles, until he eventually started working on independent films by many reputable, up and coming film makers around the state. More recently, he has principal and co-star roles on several more projects and tv pilots. In March 2018, Josiah was signed to his first Talent Agency, and remained with them for 2 years. Then, in August 2018, he signed as one of the newest faces of an Atlanta based modeling agency as a way to grow his following and expand his network. In March 2020, Josiah Paul was awarded Best Supporting Actor in a Short at the 2020 Garden State Film Festival, for his role as Private O'Ryan in "Walking Point." This year, Garden State Film Fest, which usually has an attendance of over 26,000 people, featured 240 films from over 20 countries. Most recently, in July 2020, he signed to Landrum Arts LA and is now exclusively represented by the agency. When the industry slowed down in 2020 Josiah formed his own production companies Kyng Media and Kyngdom Pictures as a creative outlet. He has since worked with many brands commercially, and directed several short films. In 2025, he completed filming for his most recent short 'Penitence', which is his first short film that he wrote, directed and starred in. Penitence is the first time that Josiah has acted in 3 different roles as 3 different characters in the same film. Thus far, Josiah is known as a versatile actor and is often one to step out of his comfort zone to explore new elements when taking on a new role. As of 2026, Kyng Media has grown to a successful full service production company with hundreds of happy clients all around the world.
