BIO: Jensen Ackles was born in Dallas, Texas to Roger Alan Ackles and Donna Joan Shaffer. After modeling as a young child, he began to concentrate on an acting career in 1996 upon his graduation from Lloyd V. Berkner High School in Richardson, Texas. In 1997 he landed a role on the NBC soap opera Days of Our Lives as Eric Brady, for which he won a 1998 Soap Opera Digest Award for Best Male Newcomer.
After leaving Days of our Lives in 2000, Ackles went to Vancouver and joined the cast of the James Cameron television series Dark Angel. His first appearance on the show was in 2001 as Max's (Jessica Alba) disturbed brother Ben/X5-493. After Ben was killed off, Ackles returned to the series in the second season as a clone, Alec/X5-494, who eventually teamed up with Max and stayed until the show's demise in 2002.
In 2003, he made several guest appearances as C.J. on the hit WB Network show, Dawson's Creek. In 2004, Ackles returned to Vancouver and became a regular on the popular WB Network series, Smallville, which revolves around the life of teenager Clark Kent aka Superman (Tom Welling.) His character, Jason Teague, was an assistant coach for the high school football team and a love interest of Clark Kent's ex-girlfriend, Lana Lang, played by Kristin Kreuk.
Ackles currently stars in the new WB horror series Supernatural. In it he plays a tough- as- nails character named Dean Winchester, who teams up with his brother Sam (Jared Padalecki) to road-trip across the country and investigate paranormal phenomena.
