Those who have been fans of the Santa Barbara TV series will surely remember the inimitable, charming handsome Mason Capwell. His name then became a household name, most of the spectators were in love with him - the wonderful American actor Lane Davis played this role so convincingly and vividly.
Biography
Lane Davis was born in Georgia in 1950. He and his two brothers spent all their childhood behind the scenes - at work with their mother, a theater actress. Very often, the brothers helped to install the scenery, and then watched the actors rehearse the next performance. Lane's father worked on the radio - was the host of various programs.
The world of the theater fascinated the boy, and at a young age he decided that he would become an artist. Lane enrolled in a theater group, and at one of the competitions he read a long monologue, which the audience greeted with a thunderous ovation.
Even then, he showed the abilities of an actor, so it is not surprising that after school, Davis entered the acting course. It is also logical that as a student, he began to appear on stage in small roles.
Film career
In those years, television projects were popular in the United States, and Davis did not escape the fate of a "serial actor" - in 1981 he played a doctor in the series "Days of Our Lives", Here he perfectly embodied the image of a lonely, self-contained person who does not want to open up, so as not to stir up the soul with memories.
However, this role did not bring him fame - Davis became famous throughout the world thanks to the television series "Santa Barbara". Many people remember that during the hours when this series was running, the streets of Russian cities became unusually deserted. Davis's hero is Mason, the son of a billionaire. Probably, few people could portray such a contradictory personality so believably. Lane's Mason turned out to be a charming handsome man with an extraordinary ability to instantly turn people against him.
The audience admired his love affairs, and could not understand whether they love him or hate him for everything he brings to women. Davis worked on the show for five years and then left, tired of the monotony. Although it seemed that Lace and Mason were one and the same now. And the audience was very upset when they saw another artist in this role.
However, Davis was waiting for other activities: he went on a trip around the world to make the so-called "reset" and think about the future. Upon returning home, the actor created his own theater, in which he also played. Here he again was able to relive the exciting moments of childhood, when the theater seemed the most magical place on earth.
However, the cinema did not want to part with the talented actor, and Davis was again invited to the series "The New Adventures of Superman" to play the bastard Tempus. He definitely succeeded in this role - the audience hated his hero, and no longer connected the name of Lane and Mason. A little later, he played a specialist in the series "Russians in the City of Angels", and also very convincingly.
But still his main passion is theater, in which he plays the roles of an actor, producer, director and inspirer of many projects.
Personal life
Before the wedding, Lane and his future wife Holly dated for nine whole years - this speaks of the strength of the union. They decided on the marriage after Holly became pregnant with her first son Nathan - this happened in 1989. After a short time, the Davis family grew by one more person - the second son of Thatcher was born. Davis said that after the birth of his sons, he realized what real values in life are.
Lane has many hobbies: he loves carpentry, fishing with friends, skiing and reading. All his family rests in the mountains of San Bernardino, in their own house.
