  Slim, intense and smoky-voiced, Perry became best-known for his updated 1950s look and James Dean attitude as the misbehaved but misunderstood Dylan McKay on Fox TV's appealing paean to puberty, "Beverly Hills, 90210". The blue-collar, Ohio-born Perry arrived in Los Angeles after graduating high school, doing odd jobs (working in a doorknob factory, laying asphalt) while auditioning. He acted in the soaps "Loving" (ABC) and "Another World" (NBC) in the late 80s, added his smoldering presence to Levi's 501 jeans ads, and had a bit part in the film "Scorchers" (not released till 1992).

Fame came with his winning the role of Dylan McKay in "90210" in 1990, and the near-hysteria that resulted transformed the actor into the leading teeny-bopper idol of the early 90s. Big-screen roles in the teen drama "Terminal Bliss" and the horror/comedy "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (both 1992) did not, however, make him a movie star. Perry finally got some respectable notices with "8 Seconds" (1994), a biopic of rodeo rider Lane Frost, who died in 1989 after being gored by a bull. Perry left "90210" late in 1995, and filmed "Normal Life" (shown on HBO and released directly on video in 1996), in which he played a cop driven to crime in order to satisfy his wife's lifestyle1 Although he had a featured role in the sci-fi box-office hit "The Fifth Element" (1997), he was not able to translate his small screen success into feature film stardom (as evidence by the 1998 cable premiere of "Indiscreet" on HBO). A series deal with ABC yielded naught, so perhaps in an effort to resuscitate his faltering profile, Perry rejoined his old series in November 1998 and stayed until the series wrapped in 2000.

Besides his stint with the HBO prison series "Oz" (2002), Perry was also seen on Broadway in "The Rocky Horror Show" and on the Showtime series "Jeremiah" (2002).
