Bennett "Ben" Joseph Savage was born on September 13th, 1980, in
Chicago, Illinois. Ben got his start
in acting when he appeared in his first commercial at the tender age of
5. From there, his first major speaking role was in the
comedy series, Dear John (1988),
opposite Judd Hirsch and fellow
Chicago-native, Isabella Hofmann. He
starred in a handful of made-for-TV movies and other films, most
significantly Wild Palms (1993),
until being cast in the lead role in the series
Boy Meets World (1993), which
catapulted him into stardom. Ben didn't put aside his studies in the
course of his acting career, graduating in 2004 from the famed Stanford
University with a degree in Political Science. In the summer of 2003,
he got an internship with the office of US Senator
Arlen Specter (R-PA) and seems to be well
on his way to another chapter in his life.
