During the 70's, Jack did a lot of modeling for briefs and every fashion magazine worldwide.  He was the sexiest model around.  Jack was active in sports and baseball was his passion.

Jack spent his early days before he was an actor doing odd jobs in Sacramento, CA and came across a modeling agency.  They took him right a way and he did modeling in London and Milan.  Later he went into prime time series TV and did numerous appearances in shows over a ten year period.  He played in "The Starmaker" which starred Rock Hudson.  Jack also played in "The Devlin Connection" as well as other series.

Jack later produced a pin up poster which sold all over the globe by fans who were wild about him :).  Hey, who wouldn't be, right?  Anyway, this poster led to other projects that Jack was involved in.  Jack did various projects such as his own TV series on ABC "High Performance".  He also did another series on NBC called "Berrengers".  In 1985, he starred in another ABC series "Hollywood Beat" which eventually lead to other major roles as the "Hunk" in movies such as "Club Med" and "The Other Lover".

In 1986, Jack got back into sports.  He participated in the eighth Triathalon during the Statue of Liberty festivals and came in 98th place out of 480 professional triatheletes.  Later this year, he did some romantic scenes.  Jack played in "Remmington Steele" and became a regular on the series "Dallas" which he played a younger lover to Linda Gray.  Jack later did some other series such as "Wolf", "Pointman" and "Tequila & Bonetti" as well as other shows.  He was very popular with the ladies and did a calendar which was one of the hottest selling items.  He was named as the sexiest man in the world and everybody wanted him :).

Jack did other movies such as "The Runaway Father", "Casualties of Love", "Torch Song".  Jack did some comedies and some of his own movies he produced.  Some of these movies were "Follow Your Heart", "Amore", and "Dark Breed".  One of my favorite movies Jack did, was "Tall, Dark & Deadly" and "Deadly Desire".  He was so awesome in both those :).  I love it when he's the bad guy, makes him so charming too :).  That's my personal thought.  Jack has made a record of eleven television series and over a dozen TV movies.  Jack returned from Rome, Italy in the late 90's filming a re-make of the American version of the TV series "Tequila & Bonetti".  He also did other films such as "Charades", "Trail of Evidence" and "Silent Predator" which produced some of the highest ratings in cable TV from this TBS film.  Jack has done kids films such as "Mel" in addition to theater plays such as "Red River Rats".

Since 1996, Jack has done other projects in his career.  He participated in golf tournaments including "Ocean Spray Pro Am" and "Children for AIDS Benefit" in addition to other events.  He later starred as "Chris Stamp" in All My Children in 2001 with Susan Lucci for two years.  I wish he was still on the show, I miss having him around.  Chris and Erica were a great couple I thought :).  Jack also helped set up an organization called "9-11-01 Lest We Forget" for victims of 9-11 and their families needing help and support.  I think that's so great Jack is doing this for these people, we all need to come together and help one another in time of need at any time a crisis happens to a family or individual.  What I mean is, we all need to look out for one another and give support to each other, caring goes a long way.

In 2003, Jack starred with Farrah Fawcett (Lissa Roman) in the TV movie "Hollywood Wives The New Generation" which I thought was awesome.  I watched it and Jack (Michael Scorsinni) was great playing the protector and ended up marrying Lissa at the end of the movie (which I was hoping would happen since LIssa and Michael made a great couple).  Jack really charmed Lissa :).

In 2004, Jack and a group of his fans (including me as you well know) :), went on a week long cruise called "The Winning Spirit".  It was an amazing trip I'll never forget and wished it had lasted two weeks!  That's how much fun it was being with Jack that week as himself like the rest of us enjoying a relaxing vacation.  I hope to someday get that opportunity again to spend that kind of time with him, he's my #1 inspiration and as I've said on the home page, I love him with all my heart.  Jack, thanks pal for all you do for us fans and your kindness and love.  I carry that with me each day thinking about you and what a wonderful guy you are as an actor and friend :).

In the short movie "Exit" 2005, Jack plays him self.  Andie has reached the end of her line. Her years as a burlesque nightclub performer in New York are done and her life will never be the same.  When she makes the fateful decision to step down as mistress of ceremony at Genesis, a once classy, now-corroding New York hot spot, she can't head out to pursue a new life away from the crooked society surrounding her until she confronts the obstacles of those depending on her, only to reveal a deep, dark secret to explain it all.

In August of 2005, Jack plays the head of Homeland Security  (Jack Scalia) William Keefe in the movie "Red-Eye".   Lisa (Rachel McAdams) who boards a flight to Miami, is terrorized by the man she met at the airport who tells her that if she doesn't make the phone call to the hotel where she works to move the assassin's target to another room where he's to be taken out, her father will be murdered.  This is a very suspenseful movie, it kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time!

In the TV show McBride "Anybody Here Murder Marty", Jack plays "Marty" who is a talk show host.  One of the guests on the show is suspected of murdering Marty and the story continues from here.  I don't want to give too many details away :).

This movie came out November 1, 2005  which Jack plays in, called "End Game".  Jack's character in this film is the President who is assassinated and a secret service agent makes it his mission to investigate the assassination.

"Taylor" which is also known as "R.I.P" (2005) is about a woman who arrives in this town for a purpose which is yet known.  The towns people don't know her reason for being here and some want her gone.  She stays at a bed and breakfast and develops a relationship with the widower.  Some of the towns people suspect romance between the two and other people suspect this mystery woman has come to town to find personal resolve in her personal life.  Jack plays Mark Sullivan.

"

"Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep"  This TV show is due to come out in 2006.  Jack plays Maxwell Odemus.  I don't have details on this one yet.

"The Genius Club"  Due to come out in 2006.  A lunatic has placed a nuclear bomb 10 blocks from the White House. He enlists the President of the United States and a group of geniuses to try to solve the world's problems in one night. If the group fails to solve the problems, the world will come to an end. The group attempts to solve world hunger, war, cancer, terrorism, rush hour traffic, jerks, and finally the meaning of life. By morning, the group finds redemption in themselves and quite possibly in the world.

"Honeymoon With Mom"  (2006)  Jack plays Nick in a movie where Mom gets dumped at the altar, a young woman takes her mother on her intended honeymoon to a remote resort. But her mother has ulterior motives -- she needs a big interview to help her magazine, and the resort owner is the perfect catch.
