Life and career

[edit]

Gibbs was born in Calabasas, California. He began his acting career at age 10 in commercials and later guest starring in television series before getting his first prominent role as Will Adams in the NBC drama series Father Murphy which ran from 1981 to 1983.[1][2] He also played Chad Everett's son on the short-lived NBC series The Rousters.[1]

He is perhaps best known for starring in soap operas such as Another World as Gary Sinclair from 1995 to 1998 and Santa Barbara as Dash Nichols from 1990 to 1992.[3][4]

In 2000, Gibbs was nominated for an Emmy award for his portrayal of the fictional character Kevin Buchanan (from 1998 to 2001) on the television series One Life to Live.[5][4]

In 2003, Gibbs was used as a model for the designing of the video game character Max Payne in the sequel Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne. In the first Max Payne game, the character was originally modeled after the writer of the series, Sam Lake.

Gibbs co-founded the Alkeme Company, a media firm based in Barcelona, Spain and Los Angeles, California.

In 2013, Gibbs created and produced the CIA procedural drama I/Nation, a television series in which he portrays Sidney "Sid" Porter, a self-destructive CIA agent. Gibbs wrote each of the thirteen episodes which make up the show's premier season and directed the series pilot.

In 2015, Gibbs, a lifelong collector, founded Gibbs & Son Ltd, a vintage furniture showroom located in Sant Cugat del Valles, Spain.
