Nathan Purdee
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nathan Purdee (born August 6, 1950 in Tampa, Florida) is an American serial actor. Purdee's father was an officer in the United States Air Force, and the family moved around many times. After spending formative years in Washington, D.C., Bakersfield, California, and Kaiserslautern, Germany, he graduated from high school in Denver, Colorado.
He first rose to prominence as Nathan Hastings on The Young and the Restless, a role he played from 1985 to 1992. His involvement on Y&R (he was one of only two black cast members on the show in the late 1980s) paved the way for more African American additions to the cast. He left Y&R in 1992 to start the role of District Attorney Hank "the connon" Gannon on One Life to Live, a role he would play until 2003.
