Where he started:
Jason's acting career started when he was just 4 years old. He convinced
his mother that he could do what other children on TV were doing. So his
mom, a former dancer/actress/choreographer/singer took him to her agent.
Little Jason's dreams soon became a reality, as he started doing local
commercials. By the age of eight, he starred in his first
made-for-television movie, "Stacey" for the Canadian Broadcasting Company.

If you're having dinner in Carmel, Calif., and the wine steward looks
familiar, it could be actor Jason Priestley. At the invitation of an old
friend, chef Francesco Soldá, the Beverly Hills, 90210 star became a
partner in the new La Gondola Ristorante, which has a 16th-century
Venice motif. Priestley, an oenophile who has some 3,000 bottles in his
private collection, helps buy wine for the restaurant. On opening night
the actor pitched in by uncorking more than a dozen bottles for
surprised customers.
