Keith Odett booked his first major modeling job in 1994, a world wide print campaign with Diesel Jeans; on his first audition in Los Angeles at The Standard Hotel on Sunset Blvd. In fact, he crashed the audition, brought there by his model friend, Doug White, who's audition it was.
Coincidently...
Back from Europe and done with modeling, after 4 years of major commercial work, now SAG actor Keith Odett, was approached to audition as a Series Regular on a pilot for a Warner Bros. TV show. Keith booked it, again a first time audition, landing the role of "Tad" on The Strip (1998); created by the writers of the Lethal Weapon franchise.
