LOGAN LERMAN
Date of Birth: January 19, 1992
Born and raised in Beverly Hills, California, Logan decided he wanted to become an actor after seeing a Jackie Chan movie when he was just two. His mother managed to secure an agent for the ambitious toddler and he quickly began earning a living in commercials.
At seven, Logan made his feature film debut playing Mel Gibson's youngest son in The Patriot (2000). Later that year, he played Gibson's character as a boy in What Women Want (2000). A small role in Penny Marshall's Riding in Cars with Boys (2001) was followed by the starring role in the CBS TV Hallmark Hall of Fame movie A Painted House (2003), based on the book by John Grisham. For his work in the telefilm, Logan won a 2004 Young Artist Award.
On the big screen, Logan played Ashton Kutcher's character at the age of seven in The Butterfly Effect before landing a starring role on the WB TV series Jack & Bobby (2004), playing Bobby, an extremely bright boy who would one day become the U.S. President. The show lasted only one season, but earned Logan a second Young Artist Award. Just as it became clear that the show wouldn't be renewed, Logan landed the starring role in the motion picture Hoot (2006), playing a new kid in town who fights to save a population of endangered owls.
Next, Logan played Jim Carrey's son in the thriller The Number 23 (2006) and the son of Christian Bale in 3:10 to Yuma (2007), also starring Russell Crowe. He then co-starred with Gerard Butler in the action flick Gamer (2009).
In his spare time, Logan enjoys playing soccer, baseball and tennis. He also likes spending time with his two dogs. /
