Personal life

Born on October 24th, 1952 and originally from Los Angeles, California,[1] St. Elwood is from Phoenix Arizona.[2] In his younger years, and having the issues that juveniles have, for two years his life was structured under the Gary Job Corps vocational and educational training center which years later in 1986, he attributed to his own development as a person and a Christian.[3] Prior to becoming an actor, he worked in some low paying jobs which included moving rocks and furniture removal. He was also a plumbers mate and a night-club bouncer. He even attended the Phoenix Police Academy for a while, but opted to try medical related work.[4]

In Early 1985, he received the Los Angeles Sentinel's Community Service Award for his work with American Cancer Society and some other organizations.[5]

In October 1985, St. Elwood was married to former neighbor and friend Irene Hubbard at the Historical Wedding Chapel in Burbank, California. Prior to their becoming man and wife, he had known her for seven years. Cast members, Stephanie Williams (Who played Amy) and Susan Seaforth Hayes (who played Joanna), with her husband Bill Hayes, attended the small ceremony.[6]

Elwwood's character as Mob leg breaker, now a bad-guy-turned-good, Jazz Jackson was already established by the time Phil Morris came in to play his brother Tyrone Jackson.[16][17] The character Jazz who originally got involved with a crime syndicate so he could put younger brother Tyrone through law school,[18] ended up killing mobster Tony DiSalvo would end up working as an operative for PIs, Andy Richards and Paul Williams.[19]
