Description
Ben Jones has had a long and varied career in show business and political life. Born in North Carolina, he grew up in a "railroad shack" in a freight yard on the docks of Portsmouth, Virginia. Working his way through college with a series of odd jobs, he discovered theatre at the University of North Carolina, and almost immediately forged a professional career. After appearing as an actor in over two hundred films, television shows, and theatrical productions, he was cast as "Cooter," the amiable sidekick mechanic in the mega-hit television classic, "The Dukes of Hazzard."
Along the way he has worked with the likes of James Earl Jones, Anthony Hopkins, Eva Marie Saint, and John Travolta. He has appeared onstage at the Kennedy Center and the prestigious Berkshire Theatre Festival, and appeared in such films as "Primary Colors" and "Meet Joe Black".
But "The Dukes of Hazzard" remains his favorite project. "It continues to find a new audience of youngsters," he says, "not only in America but throughout the world. There is something really magic about the show."
