Kyle would watch old movies, go out and perform the roles in his backyard. As a drama major at the University of Georgia, Kyle met and was signed by an ABC scout in a 1988 talent search. Kyle says of his first 18 months in LA, "I poured beer and sold souvenirs at the Museum of Natural History."

But that didn't last all that long - Kyle has worked steadily in television and may be best remembered as the minor league ballplayer "Jeff Metcalf" in the 40s drama "Homefront" (1991) or as "Gary Hobson" on "Early Edition" (1996) with co-star "Fisher Stevens." His work on "Homefront" (1991) led to a role in George Strait's feature film "Pure Country" (1992), and a small part in "Mulholland Falls" (1996). Kyle and his wife, Katherine, a television writer, live in Los Angeles, California with their daughters and their two terriers, Buckley and Otis.
