Biography
Ben Masters was an American actor whose career took him from off-Broadway stages to daytime television. Born in Corvallis, Oregon, he studied theater at the University of Oregon and then moved to New York City, where he landed a role in The Boys in the Band and spent thirteen months in Kevin Wade's Key Exchange. He went on to Broadway in Captain Brassbound's Conversion and The Cherry Orchard, and played Nick, the older brother of the title character, in the Saturday morning series Muggsy from 1976 to 1977. Daytime drama began for him with a three-month turn as Vic Strang on Another World in 1982, and in 1988 he appeared as the corporate raider Linc Bartlett in the miniseries Noble House. His best known part was Julian Crane on NBC's Passions, which he played from 1999 to 2008 and which earned him three Soap Opera Digest Award nominations.
