California Eggs, & Sony Video. (just to name a few)
Ed moved to California after graduating high-school (Plainwell, Michigan) to pursue his dreams of being not a "star", but a steady working hollywood "actor". His very FIRST experience in the "biz" was auditioning for and subsequently winning the lead role of HOWARD THE DUCK. Initially he was told "you are too tall" (he keeps that letter readily available in his living-room and often refers to it with a humble smile).
Early in his career, Ed had performed many of his own stunts such as being run over by a Big Rig, Flying on wires, Fight scenes, Being Tossed, Thrown & Dropped great distances, and Crashing through the windshield of a moving vehicle. However, his most impressive stunts just might be his FULL BODY BURNS in the first CHILD's PLAY movie and his FULL BODY BURN while FLYING on wires in LEPRECHAUN 3.
