Stephen Dorff
	BIOGRAPHY | GALLERY | GOSSIP

This handsome, brown-eyed young actor cut his teeth on sitcoms like Roseanne, Family Ties and Blossom before he rose to prominence with his award-winning portrayal of a boxing English schoolboy in his feature-film debut, The Power Of One (1992). Stephen Dorff, born in Atlanta Georgia, has been acting since age 12, and has been featured in several TV movies beginning with In Love And War (1987, NBC). That same year, Dorff starred in the teen horror flick, The Gate.

Dorff has also played the love stricken Fraser Sweeney in Rescue Me (1993); and the courageous John Wyatt in Judgement Night (1993). As doomed Beatle Stu Sutcliffe in Backbeat (1994), Dorff garnered excellent press.

Since then, Dorff has been showcased in many challenging roles, including a terrific turn as the cross-dressing Candy Darling in I Shot Andy Warhol (1996).

His more recent projects have teamed Dorff up with a series of older-generation heavyweights: Harvey Keitel in City of Industry (1997); Jack Nicholson in Blood and Wine; and Dennis Hopper in Space Truckers.

Dorff signed for a reported seven-figure sum to make Blade (1998), based on the Marvel Comic. He then appeared in Entropy (1999) as a documentarian focusing on the career of U2 followed by a staring role in John Water's Cecil B. Demented as a lunatic indie film director.

A resident of Los Angeles, Dorff also plays piano and his vintage guitars.
