In the mid 1980s, while pursuing his acting career, Jeremy Applegate worked at Victoria Station in Universal City. He made fast friends, and, although his career was just beginning, he was considered by many to be an impressively talented impersonator. His characters were pursued with intense energy, and laced with dark humor. The result was a style all his own.

Jeremy loved entertaining his co-workers, and often had them in stitches with his impersonations of beloved characters from the TV shows and ads of everyone's childhood. Whenever Jeremy was around, it felt like a party. To be in his presence was truly a treat.

Like many young actors who are just starting out, Jeremy spent his twenties, and the first few years of his thirties, working to make ends meet. Despite having a fairly solid support system comprised of close friends and their families, Jeremy was under a great deal of pressure, and was troubled with depression. Unfortunately, his state of mind got the better of him, and Jeremy Applegate committed suicide in March of the year 2000, at the far too-young age of 34.
