I have been a fan of Jason Gedrick since 1985 when he starred as Lenny Barnes in one of my favorite movies, The Heavenly Kid. 

I saw The Heavenly Kid when it first came out and it has remained one of my feel good films. If you’ve never seen it, I’d recommend you do.

But Jason has come a long way since The Heavenly Kid.  He has numerous television and film credits, way too many to list here. He is a multi talented actor, writer and director who it seems can take on any project with success.

Recently, he portrayed Liam in The CW’s Beauty and the Beast.  Although this role was limited to a handful of episodes, Jason’s bone chilling performance made the character a memorable one and earned him a legion of fans.

I thank you Jason for giving me and countless fans hours of entertainment by playing a wide range of characters to perfection. On this February 7 your birthday, I only wish for your continued success, whether it’s as an actor or behind the scenes as a writer or director.

And on Jason’s birthday, my gift to your fans is this photo album images from your dramatic achievements:
