BIOGRAPHY Born as ''Robert Duane Hillis'' in Suffern, New York and Rib grew up in Boston, Massachusetts , with his parents, two sisters and brother. He picked up his unusual nickname "Rib" while in the third grade playing with frogs, and enjoying the sounds that they make. During his junior year at the University Of Colorado in Boulder, Rib was discovered by a modeling agent. After graduation, Rib traveled to Paris where he landed various print campaigns such as Versace, Armani and Catalyst Cologne. Upon returning to the U.S., Rib came to Los Angeles during the spring of 1996 and landed a role on an episode of " Baywatch Nights " as Jeds and a Braun commercial. In 1997 , Rib was thrilled to land a part on General Hospital's spin-off Port Charles as Dr. Jake Marshak . He was on the soap from 1997 until 1998. Rib said it was a dream come true. At the age of 35, Rib in May 2006 substituted for Eric Martsolf as Ethan Winthrop , this was because Eric Martsolf had taken a week off work at Passions to help wife Lisa with their newborn twin sons. Rib is happily married to Melissa Blackler with twins, Dane and Hannah Hillis. EXTERNAL LINK |
