Paul Satterfield

Satterfield has since pursued a career in education after finishing a Masters Degree in education at Drury University in 2013.

Satterfield most recently portrayed Dr. Spencer Truman on the ABC soap opera, One Life to Live, a role he originated in June 2005. His character was killed off on January 26, 2007, but Satterfield continued to make numerous appearances via flashbacks and dreams until August 2007. In 2011, he appeared in the second season of The Bay.

Satterfield was often mistaken for Christopher Reeve because of their striking resemblance. He reminisced about the confusion from the press and public in a 2005 issue of ABC Soaps In Depth magazine, "As soon as I would show up, I would get mobbed by the press and everybody thinking I was him because he was supposed to be there." The case of mistaken identity would continue throughout the night, where Satterfield would frequently have to tell the confused onlookers, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I think the person you want to talk to is over there," only to overhear people later refer to him as "Chris Reeve's little brother." Satterfield did meet Reeves a few times, and the two would joke about their eerie physical similarities. "It was almost like when we would shake hands, it was like shaking my own hand. We had the same height - 6'4", the same build - you know, it was just unbelievable."

In 1991, he had a guest role in the popular teenage drama, Beverly Hills, 90210. That year he also became the first actor to play the role of Paul Hornsby on the ABC soap opera, General Hospital, a part he portrayed until 1994. He then starred alongside Jennifer Lopez in the short-lived television series Hotel Malibu. In 1997, he had recurring roles in Savannah, 7th Heaven, and Pacific Palisades. After numerous appearances of the big and small screens, Satterfield returned to soap operas portraying Dr. Pierce Peterson on The Bold and the Beautiful from 1998 to 1999 and 2001-2002. He had guest roles on many shows including 7th Heaven, Will & Grace and the American version of the British sitcom, Coupling. He later had a minor role in Jim Carrey's 2003 film, Bruce Almighty.

Satterfield began his credited career as a male model before moving to acting in films and television shows. In 1987, he had his first significant film appearance in the horror anthology film Creepshow 2, playing the role of Deke in a segment based on a Stephen King's story "The Raft". This is followed by a starring role in Arena in 1989.
