Jon Huertas was born October 23, 1969, in New York City, New York, to a Puerto Rican / African-American father and a Caucasian mother. He was brought up by his grandparents. Huertas studied at the ‘John Handley High School’ in Winchester, Va. By 10 years of age, he began taking part in the school plays. Once he had to sing a solo and his performance seemed to have moved a nun in that strict Catholic Convent school. This helped him make up his mind to pursue acting.
Huertas is an American actor best known for his role as witch hunter Brad Alcerro in Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Sergeant Antonio 'Poke' Espera in HBO's Generation Kill, Joe Negroni in the film Why Do Fools Fall in Love, homicide detective Javier Esposito in Castle and Miguel Rivas in This Is Us.
