==Biography==
Jensen Ackles was born in Dallas, Texas, to Roger Alan Ackles and Donna Joan Ackles (née Shaffer). After modeling as a young child, he began to concentrate on
After leaving "''Days of Our Lives''" (1965) in 2000, Ackles went to Vancouver, joining the cast of the James Cameron television series "''Dark Angel''" (2000). He first made a guest appearance on the show in 2001 as [[Max Guevara]]'s disturbed brother [[Ben]] in the [[season 1]] episode [[Pollo Loco]]. After Ben died, Ackles returned to the series as a main cast member in [[season 2]] as Ben's identical twin, [[Alec McDowell]], who eventually teamed up with Max. He stayed until the show's demise in 2002. Ackles was offered the role of Alec because the producers were impressed with his performance as Ben, though the role was not written specifically for him and would have gone to another actor if Ackles had been unavailable or uninterested, in which case Alec would not have been Ben's twin.
