Shaun Cassidy is an American actor, singer, writer, and producer. He is the eldest son of actress Shirley Jones, and the second son (his older half-brother is David Cassidy) of actor Jack Cassidy.



Cassidy grew up in Los Angeles and New York City in an Irish-American family. While still in high school, Cassidy landed a recording contract with Warner Brothers, and began making records. A series of singles were released in several European countries, leading to his eponymous American debut album in 1977, which at the time became the biggest selling solo debut in history. The album netted Cassidy a Grammy nomination and a number one single, "Da Doo Ron Ron". Two follow-up singles, "That?s Rock n? Roll" (number three) and "Hey Deanie" (number seven), both written by Eric Carmen, were top ten hits as well. Almost concurrently, Cassidy landed a starring role on "The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries" which ran for three seasons on ABC television. A number of successful albums and concert tours followed, culminating with a final album, "Wasp" (produced by Todd Rundgren) and series of sold out shows at some of the biggest venues in the country, including New York?s Madison Square Garden and Los Angeles? Forum. His final concert was at the Houston Astrodome in 1980.



Through most of the 1980?s and early 90?s, Cassidy focused on working as an actor in the theater. He appeared in a number of Broadway and West End productions including ?Mass Appeal? with Milo O?Shea, "Bus Stop" with Jerry Hall (in London) and "Blood Brothers", which ran for over a year on Broadway.



He then moved to creating television shows, including "American Gothic", "Roar" (starring a then unknown Heath Ledger), "Cold Case", "The Agency", and the fan favorite "Invasion". During the 2007 Hollywood writer?s strike, Cassidy wrote and directed three one act plays to raise money for the strike fund.



Cassidy is married to producer Tracey Turner, and they have two sons, Caleb and Roan. Cassidy has been married twice previously, and he is the stepfather of Jessica Wilson Cruz, and father of Caitlin, Jake, and Juliet Cassidy.
