A soap opera scoundrel who transitioned successfully to primetime drama, Eddie Cibrian first made a name for himself with daytime audiences on "The Young and the Restless" (CBS, 1973- ) and "Sunset Beach" (NBC, 1997-99). Cibrian channeled his classic leading man looks into roles as rakish, privileged playboys and working class heroes alike in a number of telefilms and series, including the acclaimed emergency drama "Third Watch" (NBC, 1999-2005). Following a number of short-lived primetime outings, including the sci-fi series "Invasion" (ABC, 2005-06), Cibrian found a solid niche when he donned a badge and joined the cast of the top-rated drama "CSI: Miami" (CBS, 2002-12), in which his breezy confidence and commanding presence were welcomed.
