Vital Statistics

The 411

Born into the business — his father, Ken Berris, is a director — Blake Berris always knew he wanted to perform. And, as a native of sunny California, he didn’t have to go far to achieve his dream. However, Berris did spend a summer abroad studying at Oxford, concentrating on the likes of Shakespeare and Chekhov. He ultimately graduated with a bachelor of arts degree from UCLA's School of Theater, Film and Television.

Berris landed his first television role on the CBS crime series NUMB3RS, and went on to guest star on the Disney Channel hit, HANNAH MONTANA. In 2006 he landed his first contract role as dorky computer geek Nick Fallon on DAYS.

The actor, who is single, is an avid swimmer, and heads to the beach weekly. Berris is also a founding member and playwright for The Groundwork Ensemble theater group.
