A photo tribute to Eric Mabius...

Before he became magazine editor Daniel Meade on ABC's "Ugly Betty," the terrific Eric Mabius had already created an impressive body of work both in movies and on television. He never shyed away from diversity - projects with gay, lesbians ("The L Word") or (as if the case in 'Betty) transexuals. Here are some pictures of this appealing actor:

Not sure where this picture is from but ain't it cute?

That's not Fabio! It's Eric Mabius in the indie fave "Welcome to my Dollhouse" which starred out actress Heather Matarazzo.

A same-sex kiss in the indie flick "Lawn Dogs." I'm gonna have to rent that!

Playing a game of pool on "The L Word"

Some kind of candid photo I found on a fansite...

Waking up in bed with Joshua Jackson in "Cruel Intentions." Gonna have to rent that too!

Eric, during his days on "The L Word." He's worth a second, third, fourth look, etc.

Mabius's character in Wirey Spindell winds up picking up a cross-dressing prostitute, but writer-director Eric Schaeffer cowardly cast a woman in the part! (The film was supposed to be fairly autobiographical, but apparently there was a limit as to just how honest Schaeffer felt like being.)
