James Brolin

Highest Rated: 96% Catch Me if You Can (2002)

Lowest Rated: 0% Love, Wedding, Marriage (2011)

Birthday: Jul 18, 1940

Birthplace: Los Angeles, California, USA

With his 6'4" lanky frame, matinee-idol looks and calm and collected demeanor, James Brolin was the textbook-perfect leading man for TV, and his career in that medium has been extensive, including seven years as Dr. Steven Kiley on "Marcus Welby, M.D." (ABC, 1969-76) and five years as Peter McDemott, the general manager of "Hotel" (ABC, 1983-88).
