RJ Mitte Biography
RJ Mitte is a dynamic speaker, known for his candid discussions on overcoming adversity and advocating against bullying and prejudice. He emphasizes the significance of representation in media for people with disabilities and how his own disability has shaped his life and career. Mitte draws from his personal and professional experiences to engage audiences in discussions about diversity, acceptance, and overcoming adversity, making him a powerful advocate for civil rights and social justice.
Mitte is perhaps best recognized for his role as Walter “Flynn” White Jr. on the Emmy-winning AMC drama "Breaking Bad." Like his character on the show, Mitte has cerebral palsy, which has never hindered his ambition or his love for acting. In addition to "Breaking Bad," he has showcased his talent on shows like Showtime’s "Weeds," NBC’s "Vegas," Freeform’s "Switched at Birth," and CW’s "Everybody Hates Chris." He has also taken on roles in films, notably starring in "Dixieland," appearing alongside Wesley Snipes in "The Recall," with John Cusack and George Lopez in "River Runs Red," and in the film "Who's Driving Doug."
Mitte is a Screen Actors Guild spokesperson as a member of the Performers with Disabilities Committee, and a celebrity ambassador for United Cerebral Palsy. He received the SAG-AFTRA Harold Russell Award in 2013 for his advocacy work. With his continuous effort toward eliminating the stigma associated with disabilities, Mitte inspires audiences to challenge adversity, embrace diversity and acceptance, and set and achieve lofty goals. He also uses his platform to speak against bullying and to promote the removal of stigma associated with disability, further enriching his presentations with insights from his activism and extensive experience in the entertainment industry.

RJ Mitte has worked his entire life to not only overcome but triumph over his disability. Born with mild cerebral palsy, the health struggles Mitte experienced early in life were compounded when he became a victim of school bullying. Upon hearing that bullying was at the root of several teen suicides in 2010, Mitte began speaking out on the topic via YouTube and in the media. He is now a role model for anyone who has faced difficulty and gone on to accomplish greatness in their lives. From bullying victim to Hollywood actor in a hit show, Mitte has turned his disability into an asset, and delivers an inspirational message to campus audiences to never let anything hold you back -- you can make of your life whatever you want.
Exploring the importance of ensuring that on-screen and off-screen environments accurately represent how our world looks, inclusive of those of all abilities. As the conversations around diversity becomes more prevalent in the way casting is handled, RJ discusses how the media industry can grow to be more inclusive, and what the areas of opportunity are. The significance of people of all abilities seeing themselves represented on screen and in behind-the-scenes entertainment industry careers is so important, so sharing his ideas on what it will take for more authentic on-screen portrayals of cognitive, speech, developmental, and mobility disabilities has become even more necessary today.
Also, he moved to Texas! He is doing a lot of work for his family legacy project, The Mitte Cultural District on behalf of the Mitte Foundation, while flying back and forth to LA for acting work.
If there’s anyone who embodies the importance of individuality and being your true authentic self, it’s RJ Mitte. As an actor, model, and producer, RJ has demonstrated the value of embracing individuality and owning your own brand. RJ encourages audiences to be entrepreneurial and to realize their own personal strengths and uniqueness, all while inspiring and positively representing millions around the world who live with disabilities. In his talk, RJ leaves audiences inspired to create their own personal brand by sharing his unique insights including how to build a career from the ground up, how to embrace individual advantages, and what pitfalls to avoid.
