Personal life

Masterson was born in Hampstead, North London, to Carlo Libinick Mastroianni and Marian Mastroianni (nee James). He attended Hadley Wood Primary School, Christ's Hospital School, Horsham. He then went on to Cardiff University where he obtained an honours degree in Biochemistry and Chemistry. After graduating in 1982, he emigrated to Los Angeles, California where he took his first salaried job in Hotel & Restaurant Management with Hilton Hotels where he served, among other celebrities, OJ Simpson and Nicole Brown Simpson and André the Giant. In 1984, his great uncle, the actor, Richard Burton died and Masterson (then Mastroianni) was persuaded to attend an acting class. He enrolled at UCLA's Extension Drama Programme for two semesters before auditioning and winning his first leading role in the Equity Waiver musical The Wonderful World Of Waiver! His first professional job was understudying the roles of both Mick and Aston in The Caretaker at the LA Theatre Center.
