Dennis Quaid Biography

With over 30 years of professional acting experience, Dennis Quaid has established himself as a fixture on the silver screen. He has received honors from the New York Film Critics Circle, Independent Spirit Awards, the Emmys, and the Screen Actor's Guild. His emotional role in "Far from Heaven," as a closeted homosexual in 1950s New York, was lauded by critics and earned him a Golden Globe nomination. In 2005, Quaid's career achievements were further recognized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Quaid's roles have run the gamut from dramatic ("The Day After Tomorrow" and "Vantage Point") to satirical ("American Dreamz"). He co-starred in "The Express," the true life story of Ernie Davis, the first black player to win the Heisman Trophy, portraying Davis' football coach at Syracuse University. Quaid played the role of "General Hawk" in "G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra," a screen adaptation of the popular 1980s cartoon show about an elite military unit comprised of special operatives.

Talented both in front of and behind the camera, Quaid had his directorial debut in 1998. His television film "Everything That Rises" tells the story of a Wyoming man's struggle to hold onto the land passed down through generations, which takes on new poignancy when his son is critically injured in an auto accident. A true triple threat, Quaid showcased his musical talents in the films "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia," "Tough Enough," and "Great Balls of Fire."

Outside of his entertainment career, Quaid has become a devout advocate for improving patient safety in healthcare, launching a foundation devoted to reducing medication errors after a near-tragic mistake involving his newborn twins. Quaid began acting in high school and has since become one of the most established names in the industry, consistently bringing depth and charisma to every role he undertakes.
