Jack Bauer was born to German-American parents in California. After completing high school he enrolled at UCLA. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in English Literature and did his master's degree in Criminology and Law from UC Berkeley.After completing his schooling, he worked as a Los Angeles Police Department SWAT team member, and in the U.S. Army's elite Delta Force. Apparently, Bauer also did fieldwork for the Central Intelligence Agency before being seconded to the Counter Terrorist Unit. While at CTU, he was the Team Leader for an action known as Operation Proteus and the Section Captain during the incident of the Hotel Los Angeles attack. He later uncovered evidence that three CTU agents, including his mentor Christopher Henderson, were taking bribes. Jack gained a reputation as a whistleblower, and lost favor with CTU hierarchy.Jack Bauer has characteristics marking him as a "flawed hero". He holds similarities to many Greek heroes, having a "tragic flaw" that dictates his rise to power and, inevitably, will dictate his downfall. Jack's employment at CTU has given him many survival skills that have kept him alive, yet his tenure at CTU can be held liable for many, if not, all of Jack's misfortunes (losing his wife at the end of Season One, his addiction to heroin during Season Three, the emotional "loss" of Audrey Raines, his love interest in Season Four, the lives of some of his closest friends, his job at CTU, and his own "death".)Jack's existence also presents a unique theory on moral standards and a system of beliefs. For example, oftentimes, Jack will manage to do the best job by not following rules from CTU, rather by doing things as he sees them fit. Many view Jack as a man not afraid to do the right thing; a rare trait.Season 6 Episode guide [ SPOILER IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN WHAT HAS BEEN SHOWN ON TV ]6:00 A.M.-7:00 A.M.
