Bradley Cooper

Actor

Born: 5 January 1975
Birthplace: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Best known as: Will Tippin on TV's Alias
Sandy-haired and politely scruffy actor Bradley Cooper played hapless reporter Will Tippin in the Jennifer Garner series Alias. Cooper, a graduate of Georgetown University (1997), began his stage and screen career in the late 1990s, while a student with the Actors Studio Drama School in New York. He appeared in Sex and the City (with Sarah Jessica Parker) and the Discovery Channel's Treks in a Wild World before landing the best-buddy role in Alias, a part he played for the first two seasons (2001-03). Since then he has made many TV appearances, including starring in the short-lived series Kitchen Confidential (2005, with Jaime King), and appeared in the feature films The Wedding Crashers (2005, starring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn) and Failure to Launch (2006, with Zooey Deschanel).
Extra credit: In 2006 he co-starred in the play Three Days of Rain, the Broadway debut of Julia Roberts.
