- Scott Valentine

(based loosely on information obtained at www.imdb.com)

After graduating from the American Acadamey of Dramatic Arts, the world was Scott Valentine's oyster, until he was hit by a truck on September 17, 1981.  His friends and family would warn that the incident was a sign from god, but a headstrong Valentine would continue, on a three year quest for a job in perfomance art.   

Eventually he landed a role on Family Ties... which was cancelled shortly afterwards.  He took part of the blame for the show's demise,  but his supporting cast and crew would disagree, blaming him for it completely.   

Scott spent the next five years in poverty, waiting for that perfect role to skyrocket his career into super-stardom.  Unsurprisingly, the casting directors for "My Demon Lover" saw the homeless wino they had envisioned when they looked at Scott Valentine.  He was cast in the film, and the rest is history.   

The film was so revered by fans and critics alike, that they named a national holiday in the name of Scott Valentine, celebrated on February 14.  The popularity of the film even landed Scott in the "Playgirl" Magazine (May 1988), breaking the hearts of at least dozens of bored housewives nationwide.  You can't help but admire Valentine's Legendary life in performing arts.  

Notable Credits:  

Knight Rider (1985).... as Colton, in the episode "The Wrong Crowd".  

The Hitchhiker (1990)... in episode "Living A Lie". 

Walker, Texas Ranger (1996)... as "forgettable extra who brings nothing to the episode"  

This mega superstar also hosted a very heartwarming After School Special, titled: Crackdown on Drugs (1988).  Wow, how can a busy mega-celebrity like Scott Valentine still find time to give back to the community?  It's a mystery.  What a guy!
