Born and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota with twin sister Brenda. Brandon was the eldest child of Jim & Cindy Walsh. As a result of Jim's job promotion, the family moved to Beverly Hills in 1990, where Brandon and Brenda enrolled at the local West Beverly Hills High School�where in they met new friends Steve Sanders, Kelly Taylor, Dylan McKay, Donna Martin, David Silver and Andrea Zuckerman.
Brandon dated several girls throughout his high school and college years. Among the most notable were the troubled Emily Valentine, who tried to burn down the West Beverly High Homecoming float; the bigoted Brooke Alexander , who assumed Andrea Zuckerman was rich just because she was Jewish; and sophomore Nikki Witt, a persistent girl who later moved away. Brandon even had a brief relationship with a married university professor, Lucinda. Ultimately, his deepest love was for Kelly, a once-posh girl who attempted to win Brandon's heart twice and finally succeeded when she flew to Washington the summer before college.
In between relationships with Kelly, Brandon gets involved with two of his co-workers. As a junior, he has a passionate relationship with his editor at the California University newspaper, Susan Keats. Brandon and Susan pledge to take a cross-country trip in the summer of 1996, but Susan ultimately accepts a position with the Clinton-Gore re-election campaign, leaving Brandon to instead take the trip with Steve.
During his senior year, Brandon slowly falls for the anchor at the CU television station, Tracy Gaylian. Tracy one day finds the engagement ring Brandon tried to give to Kelly in a dresser drawer, and assumes it's for her. When Brandon explains it's not for Tracy, she becomes distrusting of Brandon. The two patch things up, and Brandon agrees to sell back his ring at the jewelery store and exchanges it for a bracelet. Once Brandon leaves, Kelly returns to the store and buys the ring for herself. Brandon takes Tracy to Hong Kong to meet his father, but upon their return to the United States, Brandon realizes his true feelings for Kelly and breaks up with Tracy.
Brandon and Kelly finally decide to marry each other, but stop at the last minute as they feel they are not ready to do this. Unable to shake his feeling for Kelly Brandon takes a job out of town and leaves Beverly Hills.
Currently Brandon is back in Beverly Hills and working at the L.A. Times. He's trying to get to know his old friend's again and maybe some new ones and also hoping someday he and Kelly will reunite.
