Billy Warlock (born March 26, 1961) is an American actor.
Warlock was born William Alan Leming in Gardena, California, the son of Dick Warlock, a successful Hollywood stunt man who did stunts for Kurt Russell and was the stunt driver in the Disney picture, "The Love Bug". His siblings include Lance Warlock and a sister, Rhonda. After graduation from Birmingham High School in Van Nuys, California in 1979, Billy's father got him a stunt job as Robin Williams stunt double in a Mork and Mindy episode, one that was produced by Gary Marshall. Several months later, he auditioned for Marshall and got his first major television role as Flip, Roger's brother (and the Cunninghams nephew), in the tenth season of Happy Days.
Fans of daytime tv probably know him best for roles on soap operas such as Days of Our Lives and General Hospital. Warlock appeared as Frankie Brady on Days of Our Lives from 1986 to 1988, from 1990 to 1991, and again beginning in June 2005. He was let go from the soap and his final airdate was November 2006. In Spring 2007, he joined the cast of The Young and the Restless in the role of Ben Hollander, Jack Abbott's campaign manager. While Warlock debuted on the show May 7, by August 17 the character was written off.
He appeared as A.J. Quartermaine on General Hospital from June 13, 1997 to December 11, 2003 and for several visits in 2005 from February 4 to February 11 when his character was presumed dead and from March 15 until April 26 when his character was actually murdered in his hospital room by Dr. Asher Thomas (Larry Poindexter) after he kidnapped his biological son, Michael Corinthos (Dylan Cash).
Aside from his soap career, Warlock is one of the original cast members of the international smash Baywatch, where he played lifeguard Eddie Kramer for the first two seasons (1989 to 1990 and 1991 to 1992) as well as appearing in the Baywatch reunion movie in 2003. He also dated his Baywatch co-star Erika Eleniak, who played Shauni McClain, but the relationship didn't last due to his jealous nature - he later confessed in an interview, "I can't bear anyone else to see Erika's body".
He played the lead role in the body horror movie Society (1989), directed by Brian Yuzna. He portrayed Lyle Menendez in the 1994 TV movie Honor Thy Father and Mother: The True Story of the Menendez Murders.
He also was on the short-lived TV Series "The Hat Squad", with Nestor Serrano, and Don Michael Paul from 1992-1993.
Warlock was previously married to soap actress Marcy Walker. He married former Days of Our Lives co-star Julie Pinson, who played Billie Reed, on August 26, 2006 in Las Vegas, Nevada. According to People magazine, they had previously been engaged in 1999.
