Rob Lowe Career

Career

When he was 12 years old and still living in Dayton, Lowe got his first professional acting gig in 1976. In a production of Sherlock Holmes at the Wright State University summer theater, he appeared as an errand boy. He landed the role by calling every local theater and asking if there was a child in a play. Lowe was paid $150 for the job. Lowe appeared in Tony Flanagan's short-lived television comedy A New Kind of Family in 1979.

Lowe's first appearance in the 1983 television film Child, for which he received his first Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Miniseries, or Television Film. He appeared in the music video for The Go-Go's album, "Turn to You." He made his big-screen debut in 1983, alongside Emilio Estevez, in Francis Ford Coppola's The Strangers. Sodapop Curtis, the brother of Ponyboy Curtis (C. Thomas Howell) and Darryl Curtis (Patrick Swayze), was played by Lowe. In 1984, he starred opposite Jodie Foster in Tony Richardson's The Hotel New Hampshire. In St. Elmo's Fire, Lowe and Estevez reunited, making them the two most prominent members of the Brat Pack. The last Night... was followed by Demi Moore (who had appeared alongside Lowe in St. Elmo's Fire). He then received his second Golden Globe Award for his work as the mentally impaired Rory in Square Dance (1987). In August 1987, he appeared on stage in Chekov's The Three Sisters at The Williamstown Theatre Festival, playing Baron Tusenbach. He recalled meeting Paul Newman there and that the older actor pushed him to work in the theater in 1993 when filming a British television version of the Tennessee Williams play Suddenly, Last Summer with (the now) Maggie Smith and Natasha Richardson.

Lowe appeared in 1994's The Stand, which was based on Stephen King's book of the same name.

Sam Seaborn appeared in the television series The West Wing from 1999 to 2003 (and briefly in 2006). Lowe earned a Primetime Emmy Award nomination and two Golden Globe Award nominations for Best Actor in a Drama Series for his role in the series. Lowe was attracted to the role due to his personal passion for politics and his long-term friendship with Martin Sheen, who was portraying President Josiah Bartlet.

Lowe was considered the pilot when the show premiered, and the pilot was centered on his character. Lowe's character was no longer the show's main focus as the cast members included Allison Janney, Richard Schiff, Janel Moloney, Dulé Hill, John Spencer, Bradley Whitford, Martin Sheen (who was originally written as a guest actor) and Stockard Channing (whose First Lady was initially scripted as a guest star) — although the show's cast members were not aware that Lowe's character was no longer the show's principal actor) and Lowe and series creator Aaron Sorkin soon found themselves at odds over the network's meddling with the show, notably the network's demanding that Lowe's character be changed. Lowe left the series shortly after Sorkin and executive producer Thomas Schlamme resigned over a controversies with NBC.

Lowe played Sam Seaborn in two of the final four episodes during the final season of The West Wing. When the other lead characters received a raise and Lowe did not, he said on The Oprah Winfrey Show that he left the show because he did not feel respected.

Lowe, the actor and executive producer of a failed NBC drama, was the star and executive producer of a failed NBC drama, Den (2003). He tried again in a Dr. Vegas serial in 2004, but it was also cancelled right away.

Derek Shepherd of Grey's Anatomy was a character who would later be transferred to Patrick Dempsey.

Lowe, despite two cancelled TV series and flops like View From the Top and the made-for-TV film Perfect Strangers during his post-West Wing tenure, has had a blast in the TV miniseries genre. Lowe appeared in the TNT adaptation of Stephen King's Lot in 2004, which was the highest-rated cable program of the summer and had the highest ratings TNT original programming had at the time.

Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee appeared in A Few Good Men, Sorkin's London West End production, 2005, the first time the two had collaborated together since The West Wing. Despite Lowe's annoyance with his reduced presence on the show at the time of his departure, he has now confirmed that any animosity between them has been put aside and that he was delighted to be working with Sorkin once more.

Lowe appeared in the Lifetime network's miniseries Beach Girls, based on the Luanne Rice novel of the same name. The series premiere received the highest ratings for a movie premiere in Lifetime history. Lowe returned to film in the 2006 independent film Thank You for Smoking, where he played a movie agent.

In 2006, he directed The Perfect Day for TNT, in which he took a pay cut to film in New Orleans in order to assist the Hurricane Katrina-ravaged area. Lowe produced Stir of Echoes: The Homecoming, the sequel to the 1999 Kevin Bacon thriller Stir of Echoes.

Lowe will appear on Brothers & Sisters as a guest performer for many episodes in 2006. Since Lowe's debut on the show in November 2006, the show's highest ratings and demographic performance since its premiere, ABC announced in January 2007. Lowe revealed that he would be back for Brother & Sisters' early season in March 2007. He stayed in the series until the 2009–10 season. Lowe, then, announced that he would leave, dissatisfied with the books and a lack of screen time in the fourth season. In an episode broadcast on May 16, 2010, his character was involved in a multi-vehicle accident involving a large truck and was put into coma. In the first episode of the fifth season, the storyline was told; Lowe did not appear in the episode.

In June 2006, he was the guest host for an episode of The Friday Night Project, the United Kingdom's Channel 4, he was in charge of an episode. Lowe has also appeared in a televised commercial for 'Visit California' and other celebrities, including Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Lowe told Australian radio show The Kyle & Jackie O Show that he was so affected by painkillers that he forgot to mention, including the Sydney Zoo and getting a tattoo, although he does not remember getting the tattoo. Lowe wrote a second book titled Love Life in 2014, which was released in April that year.
