Titus Cooke, the Hawaiian-born Boston-educated lawyer who plays such an important role as Aristide’s ally, as well as a growing attachment to Malia, could be a colonist predecessor of Scots actor Kevin McGill, best-known for his high-profile role as surgeon Owen Hunt in Grey’s Anatomy.
They share the “Celt’ red-gold honey blond hair and blue/grey eyes, and a serious intensity which announces they have deep convictions about justice and freedom. While also showing flashes of whimsical humor.
What else is there to know about Titus Cooke?
- Hawaiian-born Titus always felt a deep separation from his roots when he was sent back to Boston to his American grandfather for his legal education, and has never wanted to live anywhere else since he returned home ten years ago
- His family’s deeply religious nature – his father was one of the Third Mission of Foreign Missionaries to the Sandwich Islands (Hawaii) in 1828 has left him with a keen sense of things “eternal and unseen.”
- His Christian heritage has ingrained in him a quiet sense of purpose for supporting the vulnerable against the powerful – so he’s a natural to feel an affinity with both Aristide and Malia.
- He has a deep resonant voice and when he chooses to sing – rarely in public – he is a joy to hear.
- He is keenly aware of public opinion – and also completely immune to being influenced out of his deep personal convictions by what others think.
