"Hard Knocks" 1980's NYC
Living in Paris, France for 9 years made a very big impact on the entrepreneurial spirit of Sherwin Ross. While his skills as a saucier, guarde mange, and grill chef were promising, and his role as Berger in the 20th Anniversary tour of "HAiR" was a big hit, it was obvious Ross was destined for more. He had enough of asking his boss for time off to go to an audition, and his Berger hair was getting out of control. Sherwin's recording career and studies at the Lee Strasberg Institution and Stella Adler led to a starring role as "Berger" in the 20th anniversary stage production of the American Tribal Love Rock Musical, "HAiR" . “Sherwin was a truly wonderful Berger - he "got it" in a way many who play the role don't. In fact, when I show tapes of contemporary productions to visitors at the Archives I show Sherwin’s Berger as the definitive one from a post Broadway production”. Nina Dayton, curator of the HAiR® Archives. Gerome Ragni stated "Ross is one of the best Berger's ever to hit the boards."
After the Tout of HAiR, Sherwin went into the clothing business. He designed and manufactured Bell Bottoms out of cotton lycra Leggings in Soho NYC. The company was called "She's Got Legs". The line was carried in Macy's as well as running his own retail shops around Manhattan. In 1996-99 Ace had co-starring roles in a number of television movies, including "Uncle"and "Cell Block Sisters," which ran on HBO, Cinemax and the Movie Channel. His latest film ,"Wild Lands" in which he has a co-star credit playing a real estate developer in European distribution.
It's exactly his passion for life, making a difference in other's lives, and putting all he's got into whatever he does that epitomizes his approach to his career as an outstanding mentor, sales, and marketing executive. Today Sherwin "Ace" Ross is a partner Nickells Ross Management. Nickells and Ross together find there is nothing more rewarding than investing their combined knowledge to prepare and inspire the next generation. They nurture and manage outstanding young artists and create multiple possibilities in multimedia, fashion and merchandising. As a hobby Sherwin is "Brand Manager" working with Honorable Michael Butler in HAiR Licensing, LLC. He creates a licensed clothing and accessories line called "HAiR" promoting global peace, love and understanding. Visit the boutique.
