John Richard Schneider (born April 8, 1960 in Mount Kisco, New York) is an American actor who shot to fame during the 1980s as Bo Duke in the American television series The Dukes of Hazzard.
He is also a country music singer. He was recently known to television audiences as Jonathan Kent, the adoptive father of Clark Kent on the hit show Smallville, starring in 100 episodes before his character was killed off. Both of John's parents are from a German background.
Schneider appeared in the miniseries 10.5. He had a recurring role on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman and guest-starred on such shows as Diagnosis Murder, Touched by an Angel, JAG and Walker, Texas Ranger. He also appeared in the off-Broadway play The Civil War as a Confederate soldier.
Schneider is a born-again Christian. In 1982, he co-founded, with Marie Osmond, the Children's Miracle Network to help suffering children. In 1995, he founded FaithWorks Productions in order to produce family-oriented videos and recordings.
During the 1980s, Schneider parlayed his success as Bo Duke with a string of country music hits. His biggest hits included "It's Now or Never" (1981, a remake of the Elvis Presley hit); "I've Been Around Enough to Know" (1984); "Country Girls" (1985); and "What's a Memory Like You (Doing in a Love Like This)" and "You're The Last Thing I Needed Tonight" (both 1986).
His co-star, Tom Wopat, also enjoyed success on the country music charts. Schneider and Wopat sang several duets on the TV series, sometimes with co-star Catherine Bach.
