Fox starred in the hugely successful Party of Five series that won the 1996 Golden Globe for Best Drama. He played the role of Charlie Salinger, winning fans across the US and outside it.

He's pretty much an all-American male, what with growing up on a ranch, raising horses, and playing football at Columbia University. After studying economics, he decided to become a Wall Street broker. Modelling beckoned instead, and he's been on TV since.

Before Lost came along, Fox starred in the critically acclaimed Haunted, and the TV movie Behind The Mask, opposite Donald Sutherland.
