In addition to playing Dr. Noah Drake on ABC's "General Hospital", (and for a time, Noah's rockin' alter ego look-alike Eli Love), Rick Springfield is probably best known for his hit songs "Jesse's Girl," "Love Somebody," "Bop Till You Drop," and "Don't Talk To Strangers," among others.
His songs made him an 80's musical icon. His video for "Human Touch" was way before it's time with it's futuristic images and its wink to how technology can sometimes cause us to lose that human touch, and who can forget the strange, alien-like feel of the "Bop Till You Drop" video.....well, enough chatter, on to the interview.....
You may remember him in movies like "Terms of Endearment," "Arachnophobia", "Speed", "The Purple Rose of Cairo" and "101 Dalmations" , and most will no doubt recollect him as Harry Dunne in "Dumb and Dumber,"....
BUT what most don't know is that the man can sing and play guitar, is a playwright and founded his own theatre!
