Scott Elrod plays Cash on ABC's "Men in Trees."  Cash is Elmo's free-spirited construction worker who lives in a tent and becomes a "temporary" roomie of Marin Frist. Scott Elrod, with his pool blue, "Paul Newman" eyes, is thrilled to have been added to this stellar cast of dedicated professionals and considers it "the best acting school possible."

Scott Elrod, who has guest-starred on "Days of Our Lives" and "CSI: NY," also appeared on "Desire" for Fox's My Network TV, which he described as a great learning experience.

For Scott Elrod, who was born in Germany but mostly raised in Parker, Colorado—after stints in the Philippines and other military stops—acting has been on his mind since seeing Tom Cruise in "Top Gun." Scott Elrod's father, a retired Top Gun pilot himself, actually flew an A-4 in the movie, and his step-dad is a soon-to-be-retired F-16 Air Force pilot. Scott Elrod says, "Mom liked the fly boys, so I thought I was destined to be one."

While attending high school in Parker, Scott Elrod played baseball, ran track and excelled in math and science, but was generally a bored student. Scott Elrod always had an entrepreneurial spirit and held several jobs, from delivering pizzas to laying the runways at Denver International Airport and modeling for local fashion retailers and print campaigns. When not working, Scott Elrod could be found on the track racing motorcycles.

As expected by friends and family, Scott Elrod joined the Air Force after graduation, trained for his pilot's license and became an air traffic controller. Scott Elrod had hopes of going on to fly F-16s, but realized he wanted more than what the military had to offer.

Turning to his entrepreneurial skills and modeling experience, Scott Elrod and his best friend started a marketing company that became quite successful. During the same period Scott Elrod also tested his sales abilities, eventually landing the responsibility of vice president of Sales for a technology company. But Scott Elrod says, "Sales just wasn't cutting it." It was at that point the "Top Gun" acting "thing" resurfaced and Scott Elrod knew he owed it to himself to give it a try.

Scott Elrod relocated to Los Angeles three years ago and enrolled in every acting class that would accept him, studying six days a week. It obviously paid off.

Scott Elrod's recreational interests include flying, snowboarding, racing cars and motorcycles. He keeps in shape by kickboxing and lifting weights five to six days a week. In his spare time, Scott Elrod hangs out with his yellow lab, named Harley Davidson.
