Jason Dohring made the entry to show business by starring in television commercials before segueing to numerous small roles on movies and television. In 1994, he made his TV-film bow with a part as Billy in Someone She Knows, a drama about child murder. The following year, he supported Jason Robards and Max Pomeranc on the TV film adaptation of Journey (1995), based on a book by Patricia MacLachlan. He went on to appear in episodes of “Baywatch” (1995) and “Picket Fences” (1996) as well as in a pilot project, “Mr. Rhodes” (1996). He branched out to film two years later with a role as Jason Thurman in the sci-fi film Deep Impact. Helmed by Mimi Leder, the blockbuster hit starred Robert Duvall, Elijah Wood, Morgan Freeman, Téa Leoni and Vanessa Redgrave.
After guest starring on “100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd” (1999) and “Once and Again” (2000) as well as costarring with Krissy Perez on the family made-for-TV film Ready to Run (2000), Dohring had his next feature with Train Quest (2001), an adventure directed by Jeffrey Porter and starring Donnie Biggs and Tanya Garrett. After this project, he found himself making series of guest appearances in such television shows as “Roswell” (2001), “The Parkers” (2001), “JAG” (2002), “Judging Amy” (2004) and “Cold Case” (2004). He also had recurring roles in “Boston Public” (2002-2003), as Ian Bridgeman, and “The Division” (2004). The star of Dominos Pizza, Honda and Pepsi commercials, Dohring resurfaced on the big screen by playing Robby on 2003’s Black Cadillac, which starred Randy Quaid, Shane Johnson and Josh Hammond.
A veteran of TV guest performer, Dohring finally hit the big time when he landed a starring regular role opposite Kristen Bell and Percy Daggs III in the drama series “Veronica Mars” (2004-?). As Logan Echolls, the title character’s biggest rival from Neptune High’s well-liked crowd and the rich best friend of her ex-boyfriend, he received a 2006 Ivy nomination for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.
