Morgan Stevens

Lahir 16 Oktober 1951, di Knoxville, Tennessee, Stevens menuju ke Hollywood segera setelah lulus kuliah. Dia muncul sebagai Paul Northridge dalam satu episode The Waltons dan dalam tiga film reuni, termasuk A Wedding on Walton's Mountain, di mana karakternya menikah dengan Erin Walton (diperankan oleh Mary Elizabeth McDonough). Peran utama pertamanya adalah bermain sebagai guru David Reardon selama dua musim acara TV Fame. Stevens muncul dalam 20 episode selama musim 2, kemudian muncul sebagai bintang tamu sesekali ketika acara tersebut disindikasikan, menulis episode musim ketiga, 'Catch A Falling Star.' Saat mengerjakan Fame, Stevens juga memiliki peran satu kali di The Love Boat, The Return of Marcus Welby M.D., Airwolf, dan Magnum P.I. di antara pertunjukan lainnya. Dia juga membintangi film TV Roses are for the Rich Semua itu terhenti pada Agustus 1989, ketika Morgan mengalami kecelakaan mobil ringan dan ditangkap karena dicurigai DUI oleh polisi Los Angeles. Selama dalam tahanan, dia dipukuli dengan kejam, hidungnya patah, pipinya patah, rahangnya terkilir, dan kerusakan saraf di wajahnya. Tes alkohol dalam darah membebaskannya dari tuduhan DUI, dan perawatannya kemudian diselesaikan dalam gugatan terhadap LAPD. Morgan kembali berakting pada tahun 1992, memainkan "Nick Diamond" dalam tujuh episode TV hit Melrose Place. Namun pekerjaannya menjadi sporadis, dan penampilan terakhirnya adalah pada tahun 1999 dalam sebuah episode Walker, Texas Ranger.

Born October 16, 1951, in Knoxville, Tennessee, Stevens headed to Hollywood soon after graduating college. He appeared as Paul Northridge in one episode of The Waltons and in three reunion movies, including A Wedding on Walton’s Mountain, in which his character married Erin Walton (played by Mary Elizabeth McDonough). His first major role was playing teacher David Reardon during two seasons of the TV show Fame. Stevens appeared in 20 episodes during season 2, then appeared as an occasional guest star when the show was syndicated, writing a third season episode, 'Catch A Falling Star.' While working on Fame, Stevens also had one shot roles on The Love Boat, The Return of Marcus Welby M.D., Airwolf, and the original Magnum P.I. among other shows. He also costarred in the TV movie Roses are for the Rich All of that came to a halt in August 1989, when Morgan had a minor car accident and was arrested on suspicion of DUI by the Los Angeles police. While in custody, he was severely beaten, suffering a broken nose, fractured cheek, dislocated jaw and nerve damage to his face. A blood alcohol test cleared him of the DUI charge, and his treatment was later settled in a lawsuit against LAPD. Morgan returned to acting in 1992, playing “Nick Diamond” in seven episodes of the TV hit Melrose Place. But work became sporadic, and his last appearance was in 1999 in an episode of Walker, Texas Ranger.
