Scott Patterson

Scott Patterson was Born in Philadelphia, pa. and raised in Baltimore MD and New Jersey. While growing up he was 'music junkie,' remembering being a band since third grade, playing guitar and fronting as a lead singer throughout high school.

Scott attended Rutgers University and obtained degree in Comparative Literature, but other than that focused baseball. A star pitcher in high school, he quit the game for a couple of years after his father dies. But during University, he took it up again. "My roommate kept telling me it was a waste of God-given talent not to play," he says. "So I decided to give it a shot." Becoming a professional pitcher, he signed up to the Atlanta Braves and played with the New York Yankees, the Texas Rangers, and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

In 1983 he married Vera Davich, still a student, but the union lasted less than two years. "I was on the road a lot," he says. "We weren't mature enough to be married."

Although he was called up several times, Patterson never threw a pitch in the big leagues. When the Dodgers cut him in 1987, he spent a year travelling around Europe. It was here that he met two young theater students, who inspired him to try acting. Scott moved to New York City, and spent nearly a decade working in acting classes getting roles in commercials, films, and TV guest star roles.

In 1999 he got his place as 'Luke' on Gilmore Girls, now a huge success, still running in it's 5th season. He still lives in the same one-bedroom apartment he rented in West Hollywood, when he first moved to New York City.
