Biography
James Patrick Stuart grew up in Hollywood and show biz (as his father was a pop musician), and by the age of 12, he had a regular role on the sci-fi series Galactica 1980 as Dr. Zee. However, he did not have a large role again until he landed the role of Will Cortlandt on All My Children 10 years later.

He moved to NY for the role and the co-star who showed him around and took him under his wing was Genie Francis, who played Ceara Connor on the soap, and now who plays his rival, Laura, on General Hospital.
Stuart took Will from good guy to rapist and was eventually murdered for his crimes. Daytime didn’t hear much from James Patrick Stuart for a long time, but he did keep his career going on episodic TV. He appeared in several episodes of Seinfeld and played recurring characters on The Closer and 90210.
You could also catch Stuart on Ghost Whisperer, Babylon 5, CSI, Fraser, Bones, and Supernatural, the latter of which also provided him with a recurring role.
In 2016, he returned to soaps and landed the role of Valentin Cassadine on General Hospital. Valentin was said to be the most evil Cassadine of them all, but since he caught on with fans, he’s been given compassion, a heart, and an explanation for his bad boy ways.
Stuart is still recurring on General Hospital because he says he likes it that way as it gives him freedom to take on other roles, and even take vacations. Staying recurring is quite a feat for actors in major storylines.
The actor has been married to Jocelyn Stuart since 2000 and the couple have two sons.
