On January 21, 1963 Patrick was born in San Francisco California. his
family relocated to Santa Monica California in 1965.
Patrick grew up in and around the entertainment industry when his father was the Chief Medical Officer for MGM/UA studios in the late 1960's and 1970's
Patrick's career was entirely focused in the airline industry where he enjoyed a long,and distinguished career in that industry from 1978 to 2007.
In 2004 Patrick was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis which forced him to retire from the that industry in 2007 as Chief Executive Officer of the Kiwijet Airline Company in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Late in 2007 while commuting between Miami and New Zealand he often made frequent stops in Los Angeles to spend time with his father. During one of those stops he randomly met an A list actress at a benefit concert at the Roxy theatre on the Sunset strip in September 2007. She convinced him that he could become an actor even at such a late age. So in late 2008 he did just that. his very first gig was playing a 1960's airport ticket agent on the CBS Television series "Cold Case" the irony of being cast in that featured role convinced him that it was his new calling in life.
In 2009 Patrick joined SAG/AFTRA and has been featured in over 300 films and television series, most notably he was a series regular in the hit CBS television series "Ghost Whisperer" for 28 consecutive episodes in seasons four and five, and as Pawnee Mayor in NBC's "Parks and Recreation" in all seven seasons.
In 2010 Patrick launched a boutique production company named Jennuinn Films LLC. Located in Santa Monica, California to produce various scripted and non scripted film and television projects.
As of June 2019 Jennuinn Films flagship documentary television series "Airlines of the World" is in full development with a lineup of 26 episodes planned in the 2020-2021 date range with a pilot episode completed and ready for release in late 2019.
