	Actors - Colin Egglesfield

Colin Egglesfield (born February 9, 1973, in Dearborn, Michigan) is an American actor. He is currently part of the cast of the ABC soap opera All My Children, as Josh Madden.

Egglesfield was born and spent his early childhood in the Metro Detroit area. At the age of ten, he and his family moved to Crete, Illinois, a small community south of Chicago. Growing up, he was more studious than rambunctious, preferring to spend Friday nights alone building model airplanes. His dream was to follow his father's footsteps as a physician, but became interested in acting watching his sister Kerry perform.

Shy and gawky in his adolescent years, he credits his prep football coach with helping gain a positive self-esteem. Egglesfield graduated from Marian Catholic High School in Chicago Heights and went on to the University of Iowa's pre-med school. After his first year there, he backpacked throughout Europe.

To earn money for the rest of his time in medical school, Egglesfield turned to modeling. He won a contest (he entered at the urging of a friend), and soon after, he left medicine behind for a modeling career. He modeled for Versace, Calvin Klein, and Armani, among others before the acting bug bit him.

After taking drama classes, Colin Egglesfield found himself guest starring on popular TV series such Law and Order, The $treet, Gilmore Girls, Charmed, and Nip/Tuck. He also had a role in the 2005 movie Must Love Dogs
, in addition to many other minor film projects. On September 20, 2005, he made his debut on All My Children, taking over the role of Josh Madden from his short-lived predecessor Scott Kinworthy.

Colin Egglesfield has two siblings: an older sister, Kerry, and a younger brother, Sean. He resides in New York City and was named one of People's "Sexiest Men Alive" in November 2005.
