Acting career
Gabriel began acting at age 15 at The Public Theater in New York. Soon after, he was cast in "14 Going on 30" (ABC, 1988), a two-part "Disney Sunday Movie" with an age-shifting plot, similar to "Big" .
In 1992, Olds was hired by Dick Wolf for an episode of "Law & Order," where Olds played a hyper-ambitious student who murders his father.
In 1993, Olds made his Broadway debut with the drama "Any Given Day", a prequel to the Pulitzer Prize winning The Subject Was Roses. Soon after, Olds was cast in the Penny Marshall produced film "Calendar Girl," a nostalgic take on the teen road trip.
More work followed, with a supporting role in John Frankenheimer's Civil War prison camp miniseries "Andersonville" (TNT), and work on "Party of Five" (Fox), "Sisters" (NBC) and a well-reviewed appearance in "Charmed."
Soon after, Olds went back to Broadway, co-starring in Arthur Miller's "A View From the Bridge" at the Roundabout Theater, which won the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play. Olds was well-received as Rodolpho, an illegal immigrant who stays with Eddie Carbone (Anthony LaPaglia, Tony-winner for this performance) and falls in love with Catherine (Brittany Murphy, in her Broadway debut).
Soon after, Olds took a supporting role opposite Billy Crudup in the track and field-themed Steve Prefontaine biopic Without Limits.
In 2000, "Law & Order" producer Dick Wolf, who'd worked with Olds before, offered him the lead role in The WB's political drama, "D.C. Other credits include "E-Ring," "Commander in Chief (TV series)," "Six Feet Under," "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," "Law and Order: SVU," "Numb3rs," and "Medium (TV series)." Olds also played the role of "Ed" the Tommy Lee Jones film, The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, (winner of two awards at the Cannes Film Festival, 2005), though his scenes were deleted.
In 2007, Olds filmed two television pilots, Conspiracy (TV pilot) (Lifetime), and Winters (TV pilot) (NBC).
The latter was executive produced by David Shore, creator of House, M.D..
