One of my favorite actors in the first two seasons of 'Damages' is Zachary Booth. Zachary playes Michael Hewes, Patty's son. The relationship between Patty and Michael is a complicated one. Michael might be the only person Patty actually cares about and therefore she spends a lot of her time trying to control him. Of course, this means Michael must spend his time trying to rebel and take control over his own life. The relationship is one of my favorites to watch and as played by Close and Booth is both loving and one with confusing boundaries with a hint of sexual tension which makes it even that much more complex.
27 year old Zachary Booth is a great actor who I really hope gets more to do on the show. Zachary has an extensive theatre background and as well has been in some interesting movies the past couple of years including; Assassination of a High School Presidentlast and last years 'Taking Woodstock' by directer Ang Lee (see below). Zachary also starred as the openly gay teen Ethan in MTV's 'What Goes On'. Zachary's talent is matched by his beauty, with a face which belongs on the big screen.

happens to be one of my favorite actors (if not THE favorite!) and I can't wait til he becomes the major star he so richly deserves to be!
Zach is by far my favorite actor! He has such a genuine sense of being about him and all his charachters are so spot on. I couldn't agree more that he should be in much more of "Damages" and that he should be on the big screen ASAP! He's one of those guys that you just know will be making an acceptance speech one day for his leading role in ________.
i am a new fan of this guy..
27 yrs old huh?
but he looks quite young for someone his age.
i think he's got a huge amount of talent and I wonder why he's never starred in any so to speak, "popular" movies that will
have him become a household name.
And his roles are unexpected..
