Corey Feldman

Born and raised in Reseda, Calif., Feldman booked his first job, a national commercial for McDonald's, when he was just 3 years old. It was the first of a string of 80 commercials he did before he was 7 years old. At the age of 8, Feldman got his first big break as Regi Tower on the television series The Bad News Bears, which served as the launching pad for his career.

Feldman's feature film credits include Gremlins, Steven Spielberg's The Goonies and several movies in the Friday the 13th franchise. In 1986, Feldman starred in the critically acclaimed film Stand By Me, playing the emotionally troubled youth Teddy Duchamp.

In 1987, Feldman starred with Corey Haim in the feature film The Lost Boys. This teaming was the first of several features starring the two Coreys, including License to Drive, Dream a Little Dream and Blown Away.

After starring with Tom Hanks in The 'Burbs, Feldman provided the voice of Donatello in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III. Other films included Tales from the Crypt: Bordello of Blood, and the ambitious project Busted, which he wrote, starred in and directed. By 1998, he was in the recording studio with his band Truth Movement, who released their debut CD Still Searching For Soul in December of that year.

Today, Feldman stays busy touring with his band and has two new films out this year, Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star, appearing alongside The WB's Alyssa Milano and fellow Surreal Life cast member Emmanuel Lewis, and The Bikini Bandits Experience. He enjoys spending time with his new bride Susie Sprague, whom he married during filming of The Surreal Life. He currently resides in Los Angeles.
