The American actor, best known for his role as Rusty Griswold in the 1985 classic National Lampoon’s European Vacation, made a lasting impression on audiences at a young age. This American actor also took on the memorable part of Chris in the cult favorite Night of the Creeps, showcasing his range early in his career. Before he became widely recognized, this American actor actually began his journey in Hollywood by appearing in the pilot episode of The Dukes of Hazzard when he was just 10 years old—an early start that set the stage for his future in film. Over the years, the American actor has maintained a relatively private personal life, though it’s known that he is married and shares two sons with his wife. On the family side, this American actor comes from a talented background—he’s the brother of well-known actresses Robyn and Blake Lively, making him part of a notable entertainment family. Through both his early roles and enduring presence, the American actor continues to be remembered for his contributions to 1980s cinema.
He’s had quite the diverse career, honestly. Besides diving into the tech world with a computer company, he also took a creative leap by running a mobile roasted corn business—y’know, the kind you see at festivals and street fairs? That venture was called Jimmy Crack Corn, and he was actually the proud owner. So yeah, from coding to corn, he’s really done a bit of everything. It’s impressive how someone like him can balance such different worlds—one minute troubleshooting software, the next roasting corn kernels to golden perfection. Definitely not your typical career path, but it suits him. Jimmy Crack Corn became kind of a local favorite, thanks to his hands-on approach and unique flavor blends. And let’s be real, not many people can say they’ve built a brand around street-food corn, but he did.
