Austin St. John

Austin St. John is the son of U.S. Marine and martial artist Steve John and his wife, Sharon. He has one sibling, a brother named Stephen. With a parent in the armed forces, St. John lived all over the United States while growing up.Austin St. John's first acting role and most well-known role to date came to him when he was 19 years old, when he was cast as teen superhero Jason Lee Scott, the Red Power Ranger in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, the first installment of the Power Rangers franchise, which debuted on Fox Kids in 1993. For his role, he took the stage name Austin St. John, Austin coming from The Six Million Dollar Man's Steve Austin and St. John being a name of his own choosing.

Like St. John, his character had a background in martial arts. Though the series was hugely successful and brought St. John international recognition as an actor, long hours on set combined with low pay and no union recognition presented real challenges for him. As a result, St. John, along with all of his other co-stars including Jason David Frank agreed to leave the show during its second season if their employers rejected their pay demands and unionization attempts, but when time came, only Walter Emanuel Jones and Thuy Trang joined him in the ultimatum and ultimately left the show. St. John was replaced by Steve Cardenas as the Red Ranger.

St. John went on to reprise the role of Jason several times over, in both film and television, including a permanent role in Power Rangers Zeo, and making an appearance as the character in 2002, in an episode of Power Rangers Wild Force entitled "Forever Red". He also appeared alongside Jones, as himself, in the Power Rangers special The Lost Episode in 1999, which focused on the history of the franchise up to that point and showed the original pilot episode for the series, which had never before been aired.

In 2017, he made a cameo in the movie Surge of Power: Revenge of the Sequel. In 2018, he was acting in the television movie Monsters At Large and had a major role in the 2019 dramatic movie A Walk with Grace.

In 2020, St. John reprised the role of Jason in a second season episode of Power Rangers Beast Morphers titled "Grid Connection".

In 2022, he had the lead role in the film Tres Leches, directed by John Schneider. The film is available for free on Schneider's official YouTube channel.
