Actor / Director Profile

Patrick Robert O'Connor is originally from Parma Heights, Ohio. His family relocated to Scottsdale, Arizona where he spent most of his time growing up. At one point it seemed Patrick would have a very different occupation. After taking up poker at a very early age he decided to play professionally. Although enjoying much success, the feeling of fulfillment was not there and the stress was high. So, in 2002 Patrick decided to pursue something without any stress this time and take up acting! In just 3 short years since moving to Hollywood, Patrick has managed to earn his SAG card working in many different venues including television, film and being part of many successful print campaigns. In 2004 Patrick got to put his past gambling talents to use when he landed a recurring role on the CBS drama "Dr. Vegas."
