Originally from New Jersey, the Cooks moved to Los Angeles when Jason was born. His first foray into show business was as a pianist and promising, young musician but it was not until high school, when Cook stepped in at the last minute for the lead in the school play “Whodunnit,” that he knew he wanted to pursue a career in acting. Cook’s first professional acting gig was as host for the Disney Channel’s “Project Time” followed by various roles ranging from “Tony” in Westside Story to “Dimitrius” in Midsummer Night’s Dream at the Civic Arts Shakespeare Summer Festival. Currently Cook performs with an improv comedy sketch troop which he formed with some friends and will guest star this fall on NiName.
Daytime television newcomer Jason Cook could not have asked for better “soap opera” genes; his character, Sean-D, is the heir apparent to one of television’s super-couples, Bo & Hope, on NBC’s number one daytime drama, Days of our Lives. Cook was awarded a 2001 Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Younger Lead Actor for his portrayal of Shawn Brady.
