Ohio native Patrick Stafford has had to overcome some serious difficulties on the road to becoming a working actor. In 2003, he suffered from kidney failure and had to have a kidney transplant. Recovering from that helped him realize he needed to chase his dreams, so he moved to New York where he got a scholarship to study acting, then finished his degree at The Boston Conservatory before moving out to Los Angeles. His stage work in LA won him some serious acclaim, to the tune of two LA Drama Critics Circle Awards which helped set his screen acting career in motion. With his health problems behind him, Patrick started finding himself doing one offs on shows like Modern Family, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Supernatural, NCIS, and Glee. While he doesn't take his clothes off nearly as frequently as we'd like, we did see Patrick shirtless in an episode of the the modern day cop can talk to their dead dad via a magical radio TV series Frequency. In one episode, Patrick sits on the edge of a bed in just a pair of jeans, contemplating life as we get to contemplate what dirty things we'd do with his nice upper body. Men who get lost in their own thoughts turn us into such slutty thots! Patrick hasn't really landed that marquee role yet, but he has been in the short spoof films Orphan is the New Orange (2015) and Orphan is the New Orange: Part 2020 (2020). Hopefully Patrick does some full frontal soon. We want to pat our skin staff to Patrick Stafford!
