With Marc Maron’ podcast, Lowe boasted that he was once capable of bench pressing 135 pounds as a senior member of Santa Monica High School's baseball team, which has become a reoccurring punchline on his ‘Literally’ podcast.
Career
1970s
Lowe got his first professional acting role in 1976 when he was 12 and still living in Dayton.[13]He played an errand boy in a production ofSherlock Holmesat theWright State Universitysummer theater. He landed the part by calling every local theater and asking each if there was a part for a child in a play. Lowe was paid $150 for the role. In 1979, Lowe landed the part of Tony Flanagan in the short-lived television comedyA New Kind of Family.[14]
1980s
One of Lowe's earliest roles came in the 1983 television filmThursday's Child,for which he received his firstGolden Globe Awardnomination for Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Miniseries, or Television Film.[15]He also appeared in the music video forThe Go-Go'ssong, "Turn to You".[16]His breakthrough role was his big-screen debut in 1983, when he andEmilio Estevezwere cast inFrancis Ford Coppola'sThe Outsiders.[17]Lowe played the role of Sodapop Curtis, the brother of the main characters Ponyboy Curtis (C. Thomas Howell) and Darrel Curtis (Patrick Swayze). In 1984, he starred oppositeJodie FosterinTony Richardson'sThe Hotel New Hampshire.[18]Lowe and Estevez reunited inSt. Elmo's Fire,making them the two more prominent actors from the group known as theBrat Pack.About Last Night...followed, withDemi Moore(who had starred alongside Lowe inSt. Elmo's Fire). He then received his second Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his role as the mentally disabled Rory inSquare Dance(1987).[19]In August 1987, he performed on stage, playing Baron Tusenbach in Chekov'sThe Three Sistersat The Williamstown Theatre Festival.[20]In 1993, while filming a British TV production of theTennessee WilliamsplaySuddenly, Last SummerwithMaggie SmithandNatasha Richardson,he recalled in an interview that he had run intoPaul Newmanfour years earlier at the Williamstown Theatre Festival, and that Newman had encouraged him to continue to work in theatre.[21]
In 1989, as part of the opening ceremony for the (critically derided) telecast of the61st Academy Awardsproduced byAllan Carr,[22]Lowe made his musical debut singing a reworked duet ofCreedence Clearwater Revival's "Proud Mary"alongside actress Eileen Bowman,[23]who was dressed as an unauthorized depiction ofSnow White.[24]
1990s
Lowe appeared in 1992'sWayne's Worldand 1994'sThe Stand,based onStephen King'sbook of the same name.[25]
He playedSam Seabornin the television seriesThe West Wingfrom 1999 to 2003 (and briefly in 2006). His performance in the show garnered Lowe aPrimetime Emmy Awardnomination[26]and two Golden Globe nominations for Best Actor in a Drama Series.[27]Lowe was drawn to the role because of his personal love of politics, and his longstanding friendship withMartin Sheen,who was cast as PresidentJosiah Bartlet.
When the show premiered, Lowe was considered the lead, and the pilot centered on his character. But as other members of the cast —includingAllison Janney,Richard Schiff,Janel Moloney,Dulé Hill,John Spencer,Bradley Whitford,Martin Sheen (who was initially scripted as a small role), andStockard Channing(whoseFirst Ladywas initially scripted as a guest role)— grew more popular, Lowe's character no longer served as the show's main focus. Lowe and series creatorAaron Sorkinsoon found themselves at odds over the network's meddling with the show, most notably the network demanding changes in Lowe's character. Eventually, Lowe left the series, not long before Sorkin and director/executive producerThomas Schlammeresigned over a dispute withNBC.
During the final season ofThe West Wing,Lowe returned to his role of Sam Seaborn, appearing in two of the final four episodes. In 2011, Lowe stated onThe Oprah Winfrey Showthat he left the show because he did not feel he was being respected, when the other lead characters received a raise and he did not.[28]
2000s
After leavingThe West Wing,Lowe was the star and executive producer of a failed NBC drama,The Lyon's Den(2003).[29]In 2004, he tried again in a series entitledDr. Vegas,but it also was quickly canceled.[30]
Lowe passed on the role ofDerek ShepherdofGrey's Anatomy,which eventually went toPatrick Dempsey.[31]
Despite his two canceled TV series and flops likeView From the Topand the made-for-TV moviePerfect Strangersduring his post–West Wingrun,[32]Lowe found success in the TV miniseries genre. In 2004, Lowe starred in theTNTremake of the Stephen King miniseriesSalem's Lot,which was the highest-rated cable program of that summer and the highest ratings TNT original programming had at the time.[33]
In 2005, he starred as Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee in Sorkin's London West End production ofA Few Good Men,the first time the two had worked together sinceThe West Wing.Although Lowe had expressed unhappiness about his decreased role on that show at the time of his departure, he has now repeatedly said that any animosity between them is over and that he was pleased to be working once more with Sorkin.[citation needed]

He continued to appear in the series until the end of the 2009–10 season. Then, Lowe announced he would leave, unhappy with the stories and his lack of screen time in the fourth season.

Lowe is a fan of theLos Angeles Dodgersand theLos Angeles Rams.[83][84][85]
Sex tape
In 1988, Lowe, who was 24 years old at the time, was involved in a sex scandal over avideotapeof him having sex with two women, one of whom was 22 and the other her 16-year-old friend. The three met at Club Rio, an Atlanta nightclub. They were videotaped the night before the1988 Democratic National ConventioninAtlanta,Georgia. As theage of consentin Georgia was 14 at the time (in 1995 it was raised to 16), both were of legal age to engage in sexual activity, but 18 was the legal age to be involved in such a recording.[4]At the time, Lowe was campaigning forMichael Dukakis.[86][87]Eventually, his career rebounded and Lowe mocked his own behavior during two post-scandal appearances as host ofSaturday Night Live.[88]
Sobriety
Lowe began drinking heavily as a teenager. His early fame allowed him to lead a hard-partying lifestyle that was covered extensively in the tabloids.[89]In 1990, two years following the sex tape scandal, Lowe decided to quit drinking and completed an extensive alcohol rehabilitation program.[90]He has maintained sobriety ever since, saying it was the best decision of his life.[91][92]Adopting a dailyTranscendental Meditationpractice has been instrumental to his well-being. "It's changed my life," says Lowe.[93]
Nanny lawsuit cases
In April 2008, Lowe filed separate lawsuits against three former employees, accusing them of breach of contract, defamation, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Lowe accused an ex‑nanny of engaging in a scheme to hurt him and his wife by spreading "malicious lies." Another former nanny was accused of falsely claiming to have had a personal and intimate relationship with Lowe, and also repeatedly expressing romantic interest in Lowe, claiming Lowe sexually harassed her and that Sheryl Lowe was an abusive employer. Lowe also claimed a former chef engaged in sex on their bed when the family was out of town, stole prescription drugs from the Lowes, broke several security cameras, overcharged them for food, and allegedly made statements to various people that Sheryl was heartless, cold, and unclean.[94]
Jessica Gibson, Lowe's 24-year-old former nanny, made 12 allegations against Lowe involvingsexual harassmentclaims and labor-code violations. On June 19, 2008,Santa Barbara, California,Superior CourtJudge Denise de Bellefeuille dismissed two allegations regarding labor-code violations due to lack of legal basis.[95]The legal battle ended in May 2009. The press reported that court records showed that lawsuits filed by both nannies and Lowe were dismissed in Santa Barbara. Attorneys for both women and Lowe sought the dismissals.[96]
Philanthropy
Lowe was the first male spokesman for the 2000Lee National Denim Dayfundraiser, which raises money forbreast cancerresearch and education. His grandmother and great-grandmother both suffered from breast cancer, and his mother died of the disease in late 2003.[97][98]
Lowe is a founder of the Homeowner's Defense Fund, a Santa Barbara County non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to local control of land-use planning and transparency in government. The average price of tract homes in Santa Barbara in early 2006 was US$1,100,000, which motivated some to propose denser housing on existing lots. While in favor of increasing housing density, Lowe sought to build a 14,260-square-foot (1,325 m2) mansion for himself on an empty lot inMontecito, California.[99]His protest over the appearance of the address of the empty lot in theSanta Barbara News-Pressprecipitated a mass resignation of senior employees at that newspaper on July 6, 2006.[100][101][102]

Sheridan:"I understand that politically you were a Democrat but now vote for the candidate, not the party. How did you get there?"Lowe:"I'm a registered Independent now. I'll tell you what, there were two things. I grew up, had a family and had children, which will, I think, change who you are on all levels, not just politically. The other part was, I just don't like partisan politics of any stripe anymore. I think both parties have been co-opted by the fringe of each party. I'm a centrist. Look at what happened to Joe Lieberman. Joe Lieberman gave his life to the Democratic Party. He lost the primary, and if he had listened to his leaders the people of the state would not have been able to elect him. So I think that there is a big place in American politics now for independent thinkers."
