On the personal front, he was raised in Wheeling, West Virginia in an apartment block near the Ohio River. He started playing the guitar at age seven and worked as a security guard at the Capitol Music Hall when he was 16. Following graduation, he moved to Bellflower, California to live with his father and stepmother. He worked for Kaiser Steel in Fontana for six years and trained to be a L.A. county deputy sheriff, although he didn't pass the exam. Following an injury, he took up hairdressing and simultaneous studies in theater. The rest, they say, is history.
