@thewritelady: Gary Dourdan was born in Philadelphia in 1966. He was raised by his creative-minded mother, a fashion designer, and father, an agent who represented jazz musicians. As a child, he excelled in music, playing piano, guitar, and saxophone. Dourdan studied with legendary acting coach Lee Strasberg, and by the end of the 1980s, began performing in off-Broadway plays. After meeting "A Different World" producer Debbie Allen in Paris, Dourdan was cast in the role of Shazza Zulu, a recurring gig he played for over two seasons. Dourdan was then plucked by pop star Janet Jackson to be the object of desire in the 1993 video for her single "Again." Dourdan is known for portraying Warrick Brown on the television series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. #garydourdan
