Adrian Zmed was a hunky and handsome actor of the 1980s, when he played an eager young cop on the TV show T.J. Hooker (with William Shatner) and hosted the TV series Dance Fever.

His films include Bachelor Party (1984, starring Tom Hanks), Eyewitness to Murder (1991), Until Morning (2002), The Craving Heart (2006) and the TV movie Larry the Cable Guy’s Christmas Spectacular (2007).
