A lot of times, we will sit and wonder what happened to a certain celebrity that the whole world was crazy over.

 

This is a story of an actor who was a household name at one point but soon fell out of the limelight.

When you hear the name David Caruso, a faint light will surely come to your head because it sounds familiar. If you watched television in the 1990s and early 2000s, then you know who this man is.

 

 

Caruso was born on January 7, 1956, in Forest Hills, Queens, New York. His parents divorced when he was young, and Carus struggled in a single-parent household. He was determined to make something of himself.

Some of his early work that he was seen in includes Hill Street Blues, First Blood (1982), and An Officer and a Gentleman (1982). These roles however were small and while they helped him build his craft as an actor, they were not the reason he became a recognizable face on television.
