Career
Caruso's first film appearance was in the 1980 film Getting Wasted as Danny. Topper Daniels, "the cadet who almost drowned," in An Officer and a Gentleman (1982), were two of his many observations. Caruso spent the majority of the decade in supporting roles such as First Blood (1982), Blue City (1986), China Girl (1988) and Twins (1988).
In seven episodes of the NBC police drama series Hill Street Blues (1981–83), Caruso appeared on television as Tommy Mann, leader of the street gang The Shamrocks. In 1984's miniseries The First Olympics: Athens 1896, he played American Olympian James Brendan Connolly, and he appeared in two episodes of the series Crime Story.
In the music video for the French singer Desireless' album "Voyage, voyage," Caruso appeared.
Caruso appeared in King of New York (1990) and Mad Dog and Glory (1993), supporting police officers. He used method acting when shooting Hudson Hawk's 1991 film, refusing to talk to anyone on set because his character, Kit-Kat, had his tongue bitten off.
Caruso debuted in 1993 as Detective John Kelly in the detective drama NYPD Blue, for which he received the Golden Globe Award. He was listed as one of the six new stars to watch in the 1993-1994 season, according to TV Guide. After struggling to get the raise he wanted, he made news by leaving the highly rated show the following year (only four episodes into the second season). His decision to leave the series would be revealed in a 2010 issue of TV Guide as #6 on a list of TV's Top 10 Best "blunders."
He was unable to establish himself as a leading man in film. Critics generally condemned his appearances in Kiss of Death and Jade in 1995, with both films receiving mixed reviews and poor box-office receipts, and Caruso was nominated for the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst New Star for these two roles.
Caruso appeared in 1997 as a New York City-based federal prosecutor in Michael Hayes' short-lived CBS law drama series.
In Proof of Life (2000), Caruso appeared as Russell Crowe's mercenary associate. He appeared in Session 9, the cult psychological horror film directed by Brad Anderson in 2001. "It's great to see David Caruso back to action, with a little more technique and a little less ego," Dave Kehr, writing in The New York Times.
Caruso returned to television in 2002 in his first successful role since NYPD Blue, starring police Lieutenant Horatio Caine in the CSI spin-off series CSI: Miami. He was the first actor in the franchise to appear on three of the four CSI programs as a teammate. He was known for often using one-liners at the start of each episode. Several of these include him sporting his iconic sunglasses mid-sentence and then walking off-screen just as the main theme begins. On an episode of the Late Show with David Letterman that aired on March 8, 2007, actor and comedian Jim Caruso confessed to being a fan of the show, speaking in a squeaky voice and wearing sunglasses. Caruso later admitted in a CBS interview that he was captivated with the impersonation.
CSI: Miami was cancelled after ten seasons in 2012 due to a drop in ratings and the rising cost of production. Caruso was the first actor to appear in all 232 episodes of the series.
Caruso retired from acting and became interested in the art industry after CSI: Miami.
