Scott Wolf

Scott Wolf was a quintessential 1990s heartthrob, but I always thought he was a better actor than the teen-idol packaging suggested. As Bailey on Party of Five he handled the show's heavier turns, addiction, grief, responsibility thrust onto a kid, with surprising depth, and that earnest, slightly vulnerable quality became his signature. He never chased the A-list movie route, instead building a steady, dependable television career across Everwood, The Night Shift and beyond. There's something likeable about an actor who knows his lane and works it consistently for decades. He aged into a reliable ensemble presence without ever seeming bitter about the spotlight moving on.

Scott Wolf is an American actor born on June 4, 1968 in Boston, Massachusetts, and a graduate of George Washington University. He rose to fame as Bailey Salinger on the acclaimed 1990s family drama Party of Five, which earned him a Golden Globe nomination. He has since appeared in numerous television series, including Everwood, V, The Night Shift and Nancy Drew.
