From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Judd Asher Nelson (born November 28, 1959) is an actor/writer born in Portland, Maine. He was one of the 1980s "Brat pack", starring in such films as Joel Schumacher's St Elmos Fire and John Hughes' The Breakfast Club, as well as providing the voice of Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime in Transformers: The Movie. Following his starring role in The Breakfast Club, Nelson's career failed to take off in a big way. However, in the 1990s he has found roles in urban-themed dramas such as New Jack City and Light It Up. He also had a starring role on the NBC sitcom Suddenly Susan. One of his recent acting credits is from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back – writer/director Kevin Smith had been a long time fan of Nelson and the Brat Pack movies.
He went to school at St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire, and studied at Haverford College in Pennsylvania, where he majored in Philosophy. His drama coach was Stella Adler of New York City.
Currently he lives in Los Angeles.
