he
son of a former Shakespearean actor, Christopher Anton Knight
was born on November 7, 1957 in New York. He grew up in the
LA area where he began his professional acting career at the
age of seven, doing TV commercials and bit parts for shows like
Bonanza, Gunsmoke and Mannix.
As "middle buffalo" of the Brady clan, Chris eventually
surpassed TV brother "Greg" (Barry Williams) as the show's
heartthrob, which led directly to increased coverage in the
teen magazines of the day. Because of his popularity, Chris
was also encouraged to record a number of solo songs (even
though he hated singing) which eventually ended up on an album
entitled "Chris Knight and Maureen McCormick," a separate
effort from the Brady Kids group albums.
Since The Brady Bunch, he's appeared in several TV
shows and movies including One Day At A Time, "Little
House On The Prairie" and "The Love Boat." Chris was also
featured in the TV movies Diary of a Hitchhiker among
others, and the features You and Me, Kid, Jumpin' Jack
Flash and Good Girls Don't.
Today Chris enjoys studying dialects, gourmet cooking, and
developing computer software.
