SPOTLIGHT ON...Bryan Dattilo (Lucas
Roberts, Days of Our Lives) www.bryandattiloonline.net
The story goes when Bryan walked onto
the playground of his Beverly Hills grade school for the first time, the kids
wanted to know who his agent was. At home, his mother told him only kids who
were actors had agents. For Bryan and his sister, Kristin, to fit in, they
needed agents. The siblings began taking acting classes and within a year,
Bryan had an agent.
Bryan was born in Kankakee, Illinois
but to accommodate his mother's journalism career, the family divided their
time between Los Angeles and Florida. The family settled down in California
after his mother changed her career to start her own television and film
company, Harbour Lights Entertainment. Within weeks, Bryan (and Kristin)
landed lead roles in the feature film The Adventures of Grizzly Adams.
He also starred in the feature film Arcade. On TV, Bryan appeared on Doogie
Howser, M.D., In The Heat of The Night, Charles in Charge
and California Dreams.
Bryan graduated from Beverly Hills High
School and attended Santa Monica College, majoring in psychology. He planned a
career as a psychologist in case acting didn't work out. He was filming in
Utah when he became a fan of Days of Our Lives. He and his grandmother
would then watch the soap together. When he landed the role of Lucas, it was a
dream come true for both of them. His grandmother tapes every single episode
he appears in!
Bryan currently lives in Los Angeles.
He enjoys weight training and spending time with his son. His birthday is July
29.
