He is a fascinating man, aside from the acting.
He isn't Latino, he's Jewish.
He patterned the character in the commercials after a good friend, Fernando Lamas (yes, that Lamas, father to Lorenzo).
He's acted in Westerns alongside John Wayne — even though he couldn't ride a horse.
He goes to a boat show and buys a dog. LOL
He has saved people's lives on more than one occasion.
And he's a humanitarian!
However, a commercial does not top my other experiences one bit. My saving a man’s life on Mt. Whitney in a snowstorm, saving a little girl from drowning in the ocean as well as a dog who fell through the ice is much more important to me. I’ve been fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with disabled and at-risk children since I was 18… and that was a long time ago. I started working with disabled children, children in protective custody from their own parents and children who were in prisons as violent offenders. I have also been involved as a founding member of Free Arts for Abused Children. It is composed of artists in many mediums, who bring art programs to various institutions providing a non-threatening environment for the young people to express themselves. Through art, their social workers and counselors can frequently gain insight that helps the healing process.
Yeah. I'm a fan.
