Biography

Norman was noticeably talented and outgoing from the age of three. Norman would often entertain the women at his grandmother's beauty salon with his mimicry and monologues. Norman's mother decided to enroll him in a TV commercial workshop in Burbank, California. At the time Norman's family was living in Charlotte, North Carolina, so he and his mother would travel by airplane from Charlotte to Burbank to attend the TV commercial workshops. They made this lengthy commute once every week. As an adorable and gifted child actor, Norman had gotten his first taste of Hollywood. Norman's parents both had received job offers in California so they soon relocated back to Los Angeles. In 1992, Golden became a series regular on Fox's True Colors. The sitcom, about an interracial family and their learning to co-exist, was canceled shortly after Golden's arrival in the second season. In 1993, Golden starred in the motion picture Cop and a Half with Burt Reynolds. Casting directors Meg Lieberman and Irene Cagen watched Golden's audition tape and loved what they saw. He was then set to take a screen test with Burt Reynolds in which he passed. Norman Golden's last known acting job was a television remake of Moby-Dick in 1998.

Currently, he performs as a rapper known as Enormus. ^[1]
