Name: David Caruso
Date of Birth: 7 January 1956 Distinctive red-haired American actor, born 7 January 1956 in Queens, New York, best known as cool cucumber, sunglasses-fixated crimesolver Horatio Caine on the wildly popular “CSI: Miami”. Caruso first appeared as a fresh young face opposite some surprisingly big names: as Richard Gere's obnoxious and ill-fated classmate in "An Officer and a Gentleman", and a clueless hick deputy crossing 's warpath in "Rambo: First Blood".
He sneered and menaced his way through the rest of the 80's before landing his big break in *the* original cop show "NYPD Blue" as the caring, sharing half of the good cop/bad cop double act with grizzled veteran . He was its breakout star, and, as the show snowballed, he very publicly took his leave midway through the second season to pursue fame on the silver screen. ... Famously, his glittering career as a leading man failed to materialise, and he managed a couple of poorly-received and underwhelming B-movies (notably raunchy 'erotic thriller' "") before sinking into obscurity. He resurfaced in 2000 as 's personable fellow soldier-of-fortune in "", and after a few false starts (""), hit his stride once more at the head of CSI's suntanned spinoff.Read more David Caruso movies (actor)David Caruso tv shows (actor)User Comments |
