Courtlen Hale II was born on July 10, 2004. He lives with his parents (Courtlen and Gretchen Hale) in Southfield, Michigan. Courtlen's older sister Val Howard, also a model/actress signed him up with the agent for future acting opportunities. He received a call to audition for a commercial for a company in the Flint, MI area. A few months later he was contacted for an exciting opportunity to audition for the role of "Emmett Campbell" in the sixth episode of "Detroit 1-8-7" titled, "Lost Child / Murder 101", scheduled to air on 10/26/2010. He landed it! This was a non-speaking role where he appears with his t.v. parents "Kori and Shaun Campbell" who illegally adopted "Emmett" through a former foster care worker. The family is excited that Courtlen landed his first major audition. He also completed three commercials for Detroit Public T.V. Courtlen is very energetic, and has a big personality and imagination!
