Riley Polanski was born in Pomona, California in 2000, and started acting when he was 10 years old: the Western 6- Guns (2010), starring 1980s staples Barry Van Dyke and Greg Evigan; Airline Disaster (2011), starring former Family Ties cast members Meredith Baxter-Birney and Scott Valentine; Baseball, Dennis, & the French (2011).
The first celebrity I met when I moved to Los Angeles was Michael J. Fox, who played Alex on "Family Ties." We just had lunch, but I told my friends that it was a date.
When he was a teenager, Riley had to put his career on hold due to "family illness."
He still performed, in Mulan at the Claremont United Methodist Church (2015) and Xanadu at Claremont High School (2017), and he won second place at the California State Thesbian Festival.
He graduated from Claremont High in 2018 and enrolled in Pasadena City College. During the next two years, Riley worked as a production assistant on You're the Worst, with Stephen Schneider, and did a lot of acting, primarily in student films:
Worthless Words (USC): "A world where your words are controlled."
The Cup (St. Mary's University MFA): Two aspiring actors encounter a 1920s flapper.
Paz (Chapman University MFA): A troubled girl finds strength in a spiritual connection.
Alice In/Somnia (2020): a girl in a surreal waiting room has to deal with bureacracy.
We also see a selfie, taken with a camera rather than a cell phone.
After receiving his A.A. from Pasadena City College in 2020, Riley enrolled in Arizona State University, but after a year he dropped out and returned to Los Angeles.
He moved to the Silverlake, a gay neighborhood for older guys (as opposed to the twinks of West Hollywood), edited a magazine about the neighborhood, and worked at the Little Pine Restaurant and Starbucks.
His last film credit is in Ashes (2022): "an unlikely human connection complicates a soldier's understanding of freedom." Riley offers Levi Bernhart (left) a cigarette.
In 2024 Riley starts a musical group which specializes in Shadow Pop. He has nine songs available on Spotify, some with 22,000 streams. I watched two of his music videos.
