Brendan Fehr<\/strong><br \/>\nby Paul Spragg<\/p>\n<p>1. Brendan Jacob Joel Fehr was born in New<br \/>\nWestminster, British Columbia on October 29 1977,<br \/>\nthereby making him 23.<\/p>\n<p>2. Brendan was raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada,<br \/>\nalong with his two sisters. Interested in sports,<br \/>\nBrendan also harbored an unusual desire in one so<br \/>\nyoung: to become an accountant because of his aptitude<br \/>\nwith numbers.<\/p>\n<p>3. After a while, Brendan decided on a change of<br \/>\ncareer path: to teaching. However, he actually ended<br \/>\nup going into modeling.<\/p>\n<p>4. After doing some work for local catalogue<br \/>\ncompanies, Brendan approached an agency. The manager<br \/>\ntold him that he should give acting a try.<\/p>\n<p>5. A week later, Brendan was auditioning for a small<br \/>\nguest role on Breaker High. He got it, and the end<br \/>\nresult can be seen in the episode Taimara Has Two<br \/>\nFaces. After this, the acting bug bit, and given the<br \/>\nchoice between starting studies to be a teacher at the<br \/>\nUniversity of Manitoba and acting, Brendan chose the<br \/>\nlatter.<\/p>\n<p>6. Brendan has no problem with leaving acting behind<br \/>\nand returning to a possible teaching career. He says,<br \/>\n&#8220;If I&#8217;m out of a job, we&#8217;ll see if I&#8217;m really supposed<br \/>\nto be doing this acting thing. Hopefully I&#8217;ll be<br \/>\ntalented enough to get another job. If acting&#8217;s not<br \/>\nwhat I&#8217;m supposed to be doing, then I&#8217;ll go back to<br \/>\nCanada and go back to school.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>7. Brendan has also done his share of commercials,<br \/>\nincluding Shell Canada, Champs Sports and a<br \/>\ncross-promotion with Levi&#8217;s and Roswell. His guest<br \/>\nappearances include episodes of NightMan, The New<br \/>\nAddams Family and two guest roles on Millennium: The<br \/>\nPest House and Collateral Damage.<\/p>\n<p>8. Brendan has appeared in TV movies, including Every<br \/>\nMother&#8217;s Worst Fear and Our Guys: Outrage at Glen<br \/>\nRidge. He has even made a couple of brief forays into<br \/>\nmovies, turning up in David Nutter&#8217;s Disturbing<br \/>\nBehavior and briefly, before being blown up, in Final<br \/>\nDestination.<\/p>\n<p>9. Brendan was more than happy to join the main cast<br \/>\nof Roswell. &#8220;It was intelligently written,&#8221; he once<br \/>\nsaid. &#8220;It didn&#8217;t play down to the character or to the<br \/>\naudience. You had aliens as teens trying to hide the<br \/>\nfact that they were aliens. I didn&#8217;t have to make a<br \/>\nleap of faith. If you tell good stories and people<br \/>\nlike the characters and want to go through an<br \/>\nexperience with them, it doesn&#8217;t really matter what<br \/>\nthe story is.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>10. Brendan isn&#8217;t a huge sci-fi fan, but claims that<br \/>\nworking in Vancouver involves a lot of genre shows.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s staying with fantasy entertainment for a movie<br \/>\nabout vampires called The Forsaken, due out next year<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to SciFiFan for sending this in: 10 Things You Never Knew About . . .
