Kin Shriner Detailed Biography -
Kin Shriner (born December 6, 1953 in New York, New York) is an actor, best known for playing Scott Baldwin on both daytime serials General Hospital (1977-1993), 2000-2004, 2007-) and Port Charles (1997-2000, 2001).
He has had recurring guest-starring roles on Baa Baa Black Sheep, Full House, and Justice League Unlimited.
Kin is the twin brother of fellow actor, Wil Shriner. Kin is the elder by six minutes. Their father humorist and television host Herb Shriner was Jewish and their mother Catholic; they were raised in her religion in New York City. While he was in high school, both of Shriner's parents died in a car crash. He and his brother Wil then moved to Texas, where they were raised by their grandmother.
Shriner joined the cast of As the World Turns as Julia Larrabee (Sarah Brown)'s brother Keith Morrissey from February 2005 to January 2006. His role drew favourable reviews though his character wasn't well received by most fans of the show as he broke up popular couple, Holden (Jon Hensley) and Lily Snyder (Martha Byrne).
