Biography
Josh graduated from Dartmouth's law program and is/was a member of the Bar Association. He had a full 4-year football scholarship (he was a quarterback) to Dartmouth College undergraduate school and got his Bachelor of Arts, basically went to law school "because I knew I wasn't a corporate guy and law school gave me 3 more years of respectability before having to go to work. I got a full ride offer from the University of Denver law school which was a very progressive school so it was a lot of fun."
Josh was born in Illinois as Tommy Tim Taylor on September 25, 1943.
During his second round on Days, Josh inherited Thyme Lewis' (ex-Jonah Carver) old dressing room, complete with Lewis' unusual sense of decor - mirrored wallpaper, a rattan palm tree, bold, abstract art splattered on the walls and a rag doll hanging from the middle of the ceiling. Jaime Lyn Bauer and Josh appeared on the cover of People magazine in 1980 to promote the cover story about sex on the soaps. Jaime was on Y&R as Lauralee Brooks at that time, and Josh was Chris Kostichek. In early 2000, Josh returned to his role of Jack McKay on 90210 for a few episodes. In March of 1994, Josh said the following to SOD: "Not that I'm saying I wouldn't return to Days. It just probably won't happen." How things change...
