Rob Morrow played Dr. Joel Fleischman, a diehard New York City boy uprooted to Alaska as payback for the scholarship that put him through medical school. It was Morrow’s first starring role; up until then, he hadn’t done much beyond an episode of the TV series Fame and one Spenser: For Hire. He’d even been an uncredited extra in a Saturday Night Li...
Born in Lincoln, Nebraska, and raised in Texas, it made sense that Janine Turner’s first acting role (after a few years as a Wilhelmina model) was in the original Dallas series. She did a couple of soaps, playing Demi Moore’s sister on General Hospital, but after playing enough pretty, flighty women she decided to stop taking those types of roles, ...
John Corbett started taking drama classes for the first time after an injury put an end to his job as a steel laborer. He took classes at night, and went to hairdressing school during the day, getting his license in 1986 and supplementing his income until he finally started earning a living as an actor. He’d done over 50 national commercials before...

Barrie, Corbin was born in Texas and still lives there, making his home on a 15-acre ranch in Fort Worth. In 2009 he was inducted into the Texas Cowboy...
Long before he became Cicely’s tavern owner and mayor, Cullum was a Broadway star. He won a Best Actor Tony in 1975 for Shenandoah and was nominated again in 2002 and 2007. He understudied both Richard Burton and Roddy McDowell in Camelot in 1960, and by 1964, he was co-starring with Burton in the movie version. He hit Broadway yet again in 2010, i...
The character of Shelly Tambo, wife to Holling Vincoeur, was originally going to be of Native American descent. But when Geary came in to audition for the show (after one of the casting directors spotted her waiting tables), the producers loved her and changed the role to fit the actress. She’d already been in some commercials and a few TV shows, b...
Burrows didn’t exactly have a showbiz childhood. He was born in Winfield, Kansas, in a house with no running water, and no outhouse, let alone cable TV. Prior to Northern Exposure, he’d been in a few TV shows and movies, including John Waters’ Cry-Baby. But he’s best known as Ed Chigliak, a half-Native American orphan and aspiring filmmaker. Since ...
When Elaine Miles showed up at the auditions for Northern Exposure, she wasn’t there to try out; she was driving her mom there, who was up for the role of Marilyn, Dr. Fleischman’s assistant. When the producers saw Marilyn sitting in the waiting room, they asked her to audition, then gave her the part. (Don’t worry about her mom, though; she was on...
A late bloomer, career-wise, Phillips took up acting as a profession at age 64. At four, she knew she wanted to be an actress, and used to perform in dinner theater as a hobby, but she became an accountant instead. Once she retired from accounting, she planned to enroll in drama school, but she never got her degree because she kept getting too much...
