Atticus Cain > Nicodemus

Born in Memphis, TN and raised primarily in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Atticus Cain’s introduction to acting came during his junior year of high school, when he was recruited to substitute for a fellow student in a play. After graduating, he advanced to local theater, appearing in several roles ranging from Shakespeare to Guare. After a brief hiatus from acting, Atticus moved to Pittsburgh in 1997. He resumed acting with a cameo role on the CBS series “The Guardian” (2002). Since then, he has appeared in short films, including “Wrong Number” (2003) and “The Stranger” (2005); the Bobby Moresco feature “10th and Wolf” (2006); and “The U” (2009), a television pilot centering on an African-American University. Also in 2009, he was selected to be the first actor to portray Dr. George Washington Carver for Syracuse University’s esteemed Backstory program – bringing to life the great inventor in a touring show for elementary and high schools. Most recently he starred in the award-winning short, “Deadline” (2009), produced by Corkwood Pictures. Atticus divides his time between New York and Pittsburgh.
