Brandon Call

While still a child, Brandon Call began acting in 1984. His first roles were guest spots on Simon & Simon and Hotel. His film debut was voicing "Fairy #1" in Disney's The Black Cauldron in 1985. Also in 1985, he landed a recurring role on the NBC daytime drama, Santa Barbara. During his stint on Santa Barbara, he earned two Young Artist Awards for the role. After leaving the series in 1987, he guest-starred on two episodes of St. Elsewhere; he also co-starred with fellow soap opera veteran Christopher Rich on the short-lived series The Charmings. In 1989, Call was cast as Hobie Buchannon for the first season of NBC's Baywatch, which passed into syndication the following year. Call left the show to concentrate on his studies.

In 1990, Call returned to films with Blind Fury, in which he co-starred opposite Rutger Hauer. A year later, Call starred with Andrew Dice Clay in The Adventures of Ford Fairlane; he also appeared in For the Boys starring Bette Midler.

Avant la fin de 1991, Call a été choisi pour incarner John Thomas « JT » Lambert dans la sitcom d'ABC Step by Step , qui est passée à CBS en 1997 pour sa dernière saison, après quoi Call a pris sa retraite d'acteur.

Après l'enregistrement d'un épisode de Notre belle famille le 3 septembre 1996, Call fut impliqué dans une altercation routière sur le chemin du retour. Il fut blessé par balle aux deux bras par Tommy Eugene Lewis. Call fut soigné au centre médical de l'UCLA et se rétablit complètement.
