Days of Our Lives fans love a good story line, and it seems that the man behind Brady is one of the most talked-about story lines on a regular basis. Eric Martsolf is the kind of man who likes to get deep into his character when the time calls for it, and he does an amazing job. Right now he’s in the middle of some of the best story lines of all time with his son being taken from him, and we want to know more about the man who plays one of the most elusive, hot-tempered, amazing characters on the show.
1. Days is Not His First Soap
Before he was the handsome Brady Black, he was another soap star for many years. He began in 2002 playing the character Ethan Winthrop on the hit show, Passions. He played the role until 2008 when the show was cancelled. It was just lucky for him to get the role on Days the same year.
2. He’s Got a Fun Former Job
Before he was an actor making a lot more money, he was a cruise ship singer. He spent a year cruising the world — or at least a small portion of it — when he needed work. He spent his time in Hawaii on a cruise ship, which does not seem like it’s the worst job in the world.
3. He’s a Married Man
He and his wife married in 2003. They dated for a while before they tied the knot. Her name is Lisa Kouchak, and they have two children together. They’ve managed to keep their personal life as personal as they can despite him being a famous actor, and it’s worked for them.
4. He’s an Emmy Winner
He won an Emmy award for his role as Brady back in 2014. He’s been playing the character since November 2008, and he’s done a stellar job of it since then. He’s had the most wonderful role, and he’s managed to keep his character interesting even after so many years.
5. He’s Had Some Seriously Interesting Jobs
There was a time when he was not an actor, and he did some fun work. He performed as often a possible as a singer and an actor. He worked at Dollywood. He was a dancer at Hersheypark. He even had a radio broadcasting job for a time.
6. He Has Twins
Not only do he and his wife have two kids, they actually have twins. Their sons were born three years after they got married. They seem to have no problem having two boys as they make it seem super easy to have twin sons. They either don’t want more kids or couldn’t have them, and we don’t think it’s any of our business.
7. He Met His Wife Doing Musical Theater
They both worked in this industry for some time, and it does appear to be something they enjoyed. They met there, fell in love, and they got married a few years later. It might be frowned upon to date at work, but it seems to work for them.
8. He’s From Pennsylvania
He was born and raised in Harrisburg. He was born in 1971 in the heat of July, and he lived there for many years. He even worked there for many years, modeling for more than 50 different companies and broadcasting his radio show at the same time. He’s done a lot.
9. He’s Multi-Talented
He’s a singer, an actor, a performer, and a host. We want to know if there is anything he can’t do. His coworkers seem to really like him. He seems to make being a husband and a father look easy. What can’t the man do? Because to us, it seems like nothing.
10. He’s Not Like Brady
Some people are very much like the characters they play on television. Others are nothing like the characters they play on television. We don’t know Eric Marstolf personally, but we hear that he is nothing like the man he plays on television in many ways, but he might have a few of this better qualities. We don’t think, however, he’s quite a dark or upsetting as the man Brady sometimes is when he is on television.
