He qualified to join the Screen Actors Guild with his first "one liner" on the "who shot Jr" episode of Dallas in 1980. A theatre major in college, James fell in love with Claire Barney-Healy, who he has been married to since 1984. Never giving up on his pursuit of being an actor, the need for a young married man to have a 9 to 5 job, lead James to become a police officer in 1983.

James, who has a master's degree in Criminal Justice, has also been a professor at the University of Texas at Arlington as well as an Instructor for the Regional Police Academy. Because of this, in 2006 James went to Afghanistan for a year working for the Dept. of State, hired to train Afghan Police Command Staff and Officers after the war. Since retiring James has gone back into acting full time! James spends a lot of time on the road.
