John O'Hurley is best known as J. Peterman on "Seinfeld," which is now the syndicated show in the world and can be seen in 85 countries. John won a Screen Actors Guild Award for "Best Ensemble" for his work on "Seinfeld." It was O'Hurley's unique portrayal of the wry and witty J. Peterman that led to dozens of advertising campaigns for companies such as Xerox and The Travel Channel, earning him multiple advertising and marketing industry awards.


After a two-year stint hosting "To Tell The Truth" and a three-year stint hosting USA Network's "Get Golf with the PGA Tour," O'Hurley is now the regular host of NBC's "The National Dog Show presented by Purina," a Thanksgiving tradition, to 21 million viewers.


In 2003 and 2004, O'Hurley returned to prime time television as Roger Heidecker on UPN's "The Mullets" opposite Loni Anderson, and as Blake, the white tiger on NBC's "Father of the Pride."


John's career in television includes ABC's "Over the Top," opposite Annie Potts and Tim Curry, ABC's "A Whole New Ballgame," NBC's "The Weber Show," and CBS's "Scorch."


O'Hurley's more than 50 guest starring roles include appearances on "Murder She Wrote," "Frasier," "The X Files," and "Melrose Place." O'Hurley has appeared in several television movies including "Life of the Party" opposite Ann Margaret, "Inner Sanctum" opposite Victoria Principal, "Murder of Thelma Todd" with Loni Anderson and "Blood on Her Hands" with Susan Lucci. In film, O'Hurley starred in "Race to Space" opposite James Woods and "Billy the Kid" with Val Kilmer.


John lends his voice to several of America's most popular cartoons. Previously, John has worked on "SpongeBob SquarePants," "Phineas and Ferb," "Duck Dodgers," "What's New, Scooby Doo?," "Lloyd in Space" and "Family Guy."


O'Hurley was born in Kittery, ME, but his career began in West Hartford, CT. At a very young age, he remembers dressing in a swimsuit, homemade oxygen tank and goggles to watch episodes of the "Sea Hunt" television series imitating his childhood idol Lloyd Bridges. "From that point on, acting was in my blood," says John.


Years later, John received his theater degree from Providence College in Providence, RI. John was the only graduating senior in the Theater Department that year, he jokingly recalls, thereby, winning the year's Theater Award.


John's television career initially began as a twelve-year veteran of daytime television. His daytime shows include "The Young and The Restless," "All My Children," "Loving," "Santa Barbara," and "The Edge of Night."


Outside of television and feature films, O'Hurley is also an accomplished stage actor. His love of the theater has led him in starring roles on the national tours of "Pirates of Penzance," "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," and "Brigadoon."


In March 2007, he took the lead role in the Wynn Las Vegas's production of "Spamalot," in which he played King Arthur. He starred on Broadway and on National Tour as Billy Flynn in Chicago. In July 2008 he reprised his role as King Arthur in the Los Angeles production of "Spamalot" at the Ahmanson Theatre.


In 2005, he was on the first season of "Dancing With the Stars," where he was the runner up with professional partner Charlotte Jorgensen.


When not performing, John maintains his single digit handicap by playing on the Celebrity Players Tour, as well as in other key events like the BMW Charity Celebrity Pro-Am and the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic. Additionally, he lends his name and golf game to help charities close to his heart; namely, Golfers Against Cancer and Child Development Institute.


O'Hurley enjoys spending his free time with his wife, Lisa, and they had a child in 2006.
