Brad Maule (Dr. Tony Jones)
"Tony Jones is one of the good guys," explains actor Brad Maule of his popular character. "He's honest, compassionate and thoughtful." However, his long marriage to Bobbie Jones (Jacklyn Zeman) was shattered by a series of events, most notably the accidental death of their daughter, B.J. "Now Tony is doing everything he can to find a center in his life." Fortunately, the actor has found that center for himself.
Raised in rural West Texas, Brad Maule attended Stephen F. Austin University, graduating cum laude with a B.F.A. in theater and English. The actor, who grew up on a farm, was educated at one of the last remaining country schools (which had an enrollment of 150 students in 12 grades).
Soon after he journeyed to Los Angeles to get into the acting profession, Brad was cast in many productions. At the Westwood Playhouse, he starred in Billy Barnes' musical revue, Movie Star, for seven months. He portrayed Hamlet in Somethin's Rockin' in Denmark at the Odyssey Theater Ensemble in Los Angeles. In 1983, he won the DramaLogue Award for his performance in the two-character musical, Stephen Sondheim's Marry Me a Little.
In addition to his 14 years on General Hospital and numerous other guest-starring roles, Brad is also a popular talk-show co-host, having shared the duties on A.M. Los Angeles, Home, and Live! With Regis & Kathie Lee, among others.
Brad is also a writer and performer of country music. His first album, called Livin' It Up, received popular acclaim; and he now has another CD/video on the market, titled Chameleon. Most recently, Brad performed two songs, one of which he wrote, on The Music of General Hospital, which was released this past year.
Throughout his career, Brad has found time to contribute to his community. He co-hosted the annual West Texas Rehabilitation Telethon in Abilene, Texas, which helps raise more than a million dollars each year for the victims of stroke, heart disease, and other medical problems requiring physical therapy. Brad's own brother was a patient at the West Texas Rehabilitation Center. Brad has also endowed scholarships for students of theater at both Stephen F. Austin University and his high school in Snyder, Texas.
In his spare time, Brad and his family enjoy an outdoor lifestyle. For relaxation, he likes to paint abstracts in acrylics and charcoal. He and his wife, Laverne, live in Los Angeles with their two sons and a daughter: Michael Benjamin, Hunter Nix and Lily Alexandra Nix.
