Adam Chandler Jr. (later known as J.R.)
~ All My Children ~ Daytime Soap Opera, 1999 - 2002
He
may have looked young, he may have looked innocent, but J.R. wasn't your average tween. As a rebel, he'd do things such as
cursing out his elders, getting high, skipping school, bribing the police, stealing his step-father's car, stealing drugs
& money...just to name a few. In 2002 J.R. was aged by choice of the people who run the show, and Jesse was replaced by
a considerably older actor to play J.R. Jesse's long term role as J.R. had earned him 2 Emmy nominations in 2002 and 2003,
as well as two Young Artists Awards and a Soap Opera Digest Nomination. 
Bradin Westerly
~ Summerland ~ WB Drama, 2004 - presentJesse's biggest acting project yet, this
Aaron Spelling production stars Full House veteran, Lori Loughlin. Bradin Westerly, nephew to Ava Gregory, is the oldest of
three kids. When him and his siblings move from Kansas to right north of L.A., Bradin tries his best to fit in, picking fights
and eyeing girls along the way. He tries his best to live a normal, teenage life - with the mistakes, lessons, challenges,
and everything in between - while trying to cope with his parents' death.
