Austin Peck made his network-television debut on "Days of Our Lives" in April 1995 as the romantic and daring boxer-turned-executive Austin Reed. In 1997, Peck and his co-star Christie Clark won the Soap Opera Digest Award for Hottest Romance. 

Peck was born in Hawaii but moved with his family to San Francisco when he was four years old and then to Los Angeles when he was eight. He was 16 when, at the urging of friends and a commercial agent in Los Angeles, he began modeling and pursuing roles in television and film. Two years and several photo shoots later, Peck found himself modeling in Paris, Milan, Morocco, the Virgin Islands and Rome. He then appeared in fashion layouts for many publications, including Esquire, GQ, Vogue Hommes and British Vogue. 

Returning to Los Angeles at 19, Peck began studying stage acting with Milton Stevens at the Stella Adler Conservatory. He later moved to New York City, where he studied with Sherry Landrum and Terry Somner at the New Actors Workshop and with Richard Southern at Three of Us Studios. Peck moved back to Los Angeles upon joining the cast of "Days of Our Lives". 

Peck stays active by boxing and inline skating. An accomplished cartoonist, he enjoys sketching caricatures of family members, friends and co-stars. He also enjoys music of all types.  His birthday is April 9.
