Hello fans,
We lost two legends in their respective area this past week.
Porter Wagoner and Robert Goulet. Both had long and successful
careers. RIP...
Now let's get to today's WATN... It's on Adrian Zmed who
hails from around our area. I admit that when Grease or
Grease 2 is on TV, I simply must watch it.
When Grease 2 came out I thought it was so bad, but now I
kind of love it.
Be Well,
Anisa

ADRIAN ZMED
BIRTH DATE: March 4, 1954, Chicago, Illinois
CLAIM TO FAME: Adrian is best known for his roles as
"Johnny Nogerelli" in Grease 2, and as "Officer Vince
Romano" in the T.J. Hooker television series
FAMILY LIFE: Susan Wood (1980's - present) 2 sons, Zach and Dylan.
INFO: Adrian's role in Grease 2 led to a short period playing
other teenagers on film, including 1983's The Final Terror, in
which he played "Gerone". While this film bombed at the box
office, his next movie (while not necessarily a hit by Hollywood
economical standards), fared better: Zmed played "Jay O'Neill" in
1984's Bachelor Party, alongside Tom Hanks.

TRIVIA: Adrian took on the role of Danny Zuko in Grease
twice: first during the original Broadway run in the
1970s, and again during the show's revival in 1995.
Adrian made his television debut as "Socks Palermo" in
the 1979 series Flatbush. In 1980, he appeared on another
television series, The Goodtime Girls, playing "Frankie
Millardo". This was followed by a guest appearance in
1982's An Evening at the Improv.
Was the host of Dance Fever.
T.J. Hooker, was based on the life of a real Los Angeles
cop of the same name. Adrian appeared on the show until 1985.
Adrian Zmed returned to stage work in the 1990s. He headlined
the musical Children of Eden at the Paper Mill Playhouse, and
starred in three shows on Broadway: Falsettos, Blood Brothers,
and Grease. He most recently appeared as Noah in the musical
The Ark, in New York City, and in the 2006 Stan Harrington film,
The Craving Heart.
Often mistaken as "the kid in One Day At A Time" who was
actually Glenn Scarpelli. See a comparison picture of them both
by visiting: http://www.celebritynooz.com/watn/adrian_zmed.html
WHERE IS HE NOW: As mentioned above, in the 90's Adrian
really threw himself into the theater.
Even with all his theater work, he still stayed somewhat busy
with some roles for TV both in movies and TV series.
In 2006 filmed a 30 second PSA on chained dogs for humane non-
profit Dogs Deserve Better.
If you watch the soap opera 'Passions' then you may have recognized
Adrian as the "floating head". I really have no idea about this
but it's listed as a credit!
Next up for Adrian is an appearance in the Holiday special for
TV, 'Larry the Cable Guy's Christmas Spectacular'.
