His father, Carroll Rosenbloom, was a businessman who, first with the Baltimore Colts and then the Los Angeles Rams, was the winningest owner in NFL history. Following his father's death in 1979, Rosenbloom's mother Georgia Frontiere became majority owner of the Rams. She later moved the team to St. Louis. Frontiere died in 2008, at which time Rosenbloom became controlling owner of the team. The family sold the majority interest in the team to Stan Kroenke at the end of the 2010 season. Rosenbloom remains a part owner of the Rams, and serves as the team's vice-chairman.
After graduating the USC Film School (now the USC School of Cinematic Arts) Rosenbloom began his career at Aaron Spelling Studios, followed by working in development for Mace Neufeld Productions. He began his career as an independent filmmaker in 1990. Among his films in the early 1990s were Across the Tracks, Nails, and the ABC movie Ride With the Wind. In 1997, he wrote, produced, and directed the multi-award-winning feature film Shiloh which tells the story of a young boy who rescues an abused dog.
