Sean Kanan

Collects baseball cards from the 1940s and 1950s.

Graduated Mercersburg Academy in Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, 1985; school also attended by James Stewart, 1927-1928.

Has a daughter, Simone Andrea Kanan (b. late 2001), with former co-star on "The Bold and the Beautiful" (1987), Gladys Jimenez. Simone lives with her mother, but Sean is very much a part of her life.

He nearly died in 1988 from injuries suffered making The Karate Kid, Part III (1989).

In 1995, six years after making The Karate Kid, Part III (1989) (in which he performed most of his own stuntwork), he made a public appearance at the Eagle Rock Plaza in Southern California. The first person in Kanan's autograph line asked him to sign "Mike Barnes," following Sean's own name. Kanan happily obliged; according to himself, it was the first time he had ever been asked for an "autograph" from his KK3 character.

During Christmas 1999, he accompanied Christie Brinkley and Al Franken as guests of Secretary of Defense William Cohen, to Bosnia and Kosovo where they entertained U.S. troops.
