Originally from Memphis, Rockett spent his early years working in radio...with huge successes in Memphis, Jackson, San Juan, Birmingham (ok..Birmingham was not so great).

Rockett is known from his array of sinister characters on a number of soap operas, including Judd Benson on "One Life To Live", Duke Lafferty on "Guiding Light", and Drew Perry on "Days of Our Lives". His guest starring roles on "Taxi", "Knight Rider", "Riptide", and "Hill Street Blues" can still be seen in syndication.

For that role Rockett earned the Fonda-McGuire Award; Best Actor In A Dramatic Role. The Omaha World Herald praised him with the Best Actor In A Dramatic Role award for his performance, as well.

A first of it's kind theatre group, he and his partner Anthony DeLongis set the standard for stage combat expertise on the west coast. He spent eighteen months as a Guest Lecturer in the UCLA Theater Arts Department.

Working as a casting assistant for one of the largest commercial casting agencies in Los Angeles, Sheila Manning Casting...he personally conducted auditions for well over 1000 national television commercials for such elite directors as Gladiator's Ridley Scott, Fatal Attraction's Adrian Lyne, and Top Gun's Tony Scott.
