Evan Marriott was born on July 15th 1974 in Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA. Evan's father is a banker, he was raised in a gated community, attended a pricey private school and vacationed in Europe. Barely out of his teens, he was signed by a top modelling agency in New York and worked with a famed fashion photographer, living in a W. 68th St. pad with other models. And while he drove a bulldozer — he was even back at work on Friday — he set his sights on showbiz, trying to break into wrestling and acting. After some small jobs, Evansent his pictures around New York. A premiere agency, Click, signed him in 1994. His chiselled face caught the eye of Bruce Weber. He also worked for Macy's, Calvin Klein and catalogues, said Click President Joey Grill. His break came in reality TV show, Joe Millionaire. Evan had to fool 20 unlucky girls to compete for him under the false guise of him being a millionnaire!
