Jeffrey as well as his two brothers were raised by his single mother; they lived poorly and often moved. His high school teacher Patricia Hoyt encouraged him to enter the drama club, which subsequently gave him the opportunity to get a private scholarship and enter university.He was also interested in martial arts and earned a black karate belt in college and participated in competitions all over the state. He graduated from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst with a BA in theatre, then studied further for his MFA degree in New York University’s Graduate Acting Program at the Tisch School of the Arts, meantime doing various jobs to support himself.

Jeffrey opened his net worth as an actor in 1995, debuting on the big screen and television. ‘Throwing Down’ directed by Lawrence O’Neil was the first film in which he co-starred with Kevin Pinassi and Colleen Werthmann. Later, Donovan increased his net worth appearing in the films ‘Sleepers’ produced, written and directed by Barry Levinson, ‘Vegas Vacation’ directed by Stephen Kessler, Believe In Me’ directed by Robert Collector, ‘Hindsight’ directed by Paul Holahan, plus ‘Changeling’ and ‘J. Edgar’ co-produced, written and directed by Clint Eastwood., now totalling over 20 films and almost the same number of TV productions. However, Jeffrey’s net worth grew performing not only in films but also on the theatre stage, appearing in plays ‘A View from the Bridge’, ‘The Glory of Living’, ‘Hamlet’ and others.

He began his career on TV in series ‘Homicide: Life on the Street’ created by Paul Attanasio and ‘Law and Order’ created by Dick Wolf.

Bell, in a few episodes of ‘The Pretender’ created by Steven Long Mitchell, Craig W. Van Sickle, and ‘Spin City’ created by Gary David Goldberg, Bill Lawrence. Since 2000 Donovan’s net worth rose after his appearance in the drama series ‘The Beat’, ‘Threshold’, ‘Crossing Jordan’, comic series ‘Witchblade’, and mystery series ‘Monk’.

Since 2007, Jeffrey has landed a leading role in the television series ‘Burn Notice’ created by Matt Nix, and in addition since 2011 Jeffrey is also a director and an executive producer of the television series. He has recently been cast as President John F. Kennedy in “LBJ”, due for release in late 2016.

#Quote
1I'm not a big movie-goer. I just feel like I'm watching work. I am always outside and couldn't care less about what's on TV these days. (2004)
2I met with Matt Nix. The script was sent to me from USA, they wanted to work with me again. Bonnie Hammer and Jeff Wachtel, they had done Touching Evil (2004) with me. So I went and met with Matt and did a couple of scenes for him. He basically said, "You're my guy". And that was it. It wasn't that I was that great, it was my take on the material. I didn't know all my lines, I didn't have everything right. He just saw my angle on it and my angle was: Bring levity to a serious situation and be real serious about something that's real casual [on landing Burn Notice (2007)].
3My mom raised us three boys by herself on welfare. It's not worse than anybody else's life. We had to make ends meet. My parents were divorced, so my father wasn't really in my life. We grew up like most kids, just wanting things. [on growing up]
4Asked about his martial arts training in a TV Guide interview (8 Aug 2008) he said: I have a black belt in karate and six years of aikido and about a year of Brazilian jujitsu."
