John Corbett was born in Wheeling, W. Va., on May 9, 1961, and got his first big break on "The Wonder Years" (1988) playing a hippie who was dating Kevin Arnold's older sister.But the actor's laid-back style really blossomed as philosophizing disc jockey Chris Stevens on the quirky comedy "Northern Exposure" (1990-95), a role that earned him critical acclaim and an Emmy nomination.

Corbett's big-screen credits include Tombstone (1993), Serendipity (2001), My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002), Raising Helen (2004) and Raise Your Voice (2004), a film that inspired him to launch a career in country music.
