| Justin Chambers was born and raised in Springfield,
Ohio. Discovered on a subway in Paris, he began his career as a professional model
working throughout Europe, Japan and the U.S. with contracts at Calvin Klein and
Armani, among others. Setting his sights on acting, Chambers moved to New
York and studied for four years at H.B. Studios and Ron Stetson Studios. His training
garnered him several television roles, including Another World, New York Undercover,
Rose Hill with Jennifer Garner and Four Corners with Ann-Margret. Described
as "part James Dean, part Marlon Brando" (Harper's Bazaar, 1998), Chambers
got his big break when he was cast in his first feature film, Liberty Heights,
directed by Barry Levinson. As a privileged but good-hearted troublemaker, he
proved that he had the acting chops to hold his own opposite co-star Adrian Brody,
and soon went on to play the lead role of D'Artagnan in Universal's action/adventure,
The Musketeer. Additionally Chambers starred opposite Jennifer Lopez in the hit
romantic comedy, The Wedding Planner, and with Uma Thurman in HBO's critically
acclaimed Hysterical Blindness. He will next be seen in the upcoming independent
films Southern Belles, opposite Ana Faris and Fred Weller, and In Control of All
Things, opposite Robin Tunney and Rory Culkin. Chambers currently resides
in NY with his wife and five children. - description
