Early life[]
Lawrence was born in Abington, Pennsylvania, to Donna, a personal talent manager, and Joseph Lawrence Mignogna Sr., an insurance broker.[2][3] His family's surname was changed to "Lawrence" from "Mignogna" before he was born. Lawrence is the younger brother of actors Joey Lawrence and Matthew Lawrence.[2][4]
Career[]
He started in show business at age three and made his professional acting debut in the television series Blossom, as Little Joey. In 1998, he became the voice of T.J. Detweiler in Disney's animated television series, Recess, replacing Ross Malinger after voicing the character for one season. He would reprise the role again in the feature film and in several direct-to-video films, including Recess Christmas: Miracle on Third Street and Recess: All Growed Down. He has also done voice overs for video game characters, such as Pac in Battlefield 4 and Nick Ramos in Dead Rising 3. In November 2016, Lawrence released his debut EP, Kings March. That same year, Lawrence started a band with his brothers, Joey and Matt, named Still 3. They released their debut single, "Lose Myself," in February 2017.[5]
