Shue attended [[Columbia High School (New Jersey)|Columbia High School]] in [[Maplewood, New Jersey]]. Along with his sister, he was inducted into the CHS Hall of fame in 1994.<ref>[http://www.somsd.k12.nj.us/~chslib/history/hall_of_fame.htm Hall of Fame] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071012082359/http://www.somsd.k12.nj.us/~chslib/history/hall_of_fame.htm |date=October 12, 2007 }}</ref> At [[Dartmouth College]], Shue was a Regional All America soccer player and spent a winter studying and playing soccer in [[Glasgow]], [[Scotland]] for [[Queen's Park FC]]. Shue received his B.A. in history from Dartmouth in 1989. After graduating, he visited [[Zimbabwe]], where he simultaneously played soccer and taught high school math at [[Founders High School]].

==Career==
===Acting===
In May 1992, Shue was cast to play the role of Billy Campbell on the [[Aaron Spelling]] soap opera ''[[Melrose Place]]''. He starred opposite [[Courtney Thorne-Smith]], whom he later dated. Shue stayed on the show for six years. During this time, he appeared as an abusive husband in the [[Francis Ford Coppola]] film ''[[The Rainmaker (1997 film)|The Rainmaker]]'', starring [[Matt Damon]] and [[Claire Danes]].

A 1996 commercial for ''[[SportsCenter]]'' on ESPN has Shue being traded for former ''SportsCenter'' anchor [[Charley Steiner]], where Steiner takes his position on ''Melrose Place'' and Shue takes his on ''SportsCenter''.<ref>{{cite AV media|date=February 16, 2011|title=ESPN SportsCenter – Melrose Place|medium=[[YouTube]] video|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leknRY72Q68 |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211221/leknRY72Q68 |archive-date=December 21, 2021 |url-status=live|access-date=January 3, 2020}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

He worked on the 2007 feature film, ''[[Gracie (film)|Gracie]]'', with his sister Elisabeth, his brother John, and his brother-in-law, [[Davis Guggenheim]], the Oscar-winning director of ''[[An Inconvenient Truth]]''. Shue co-produced the film and also appeared in a minor role. It pays tribute to the Shue siblings' elder brother Will, who died in an accident in 1988. The story is loosely based on Elisabeth's childhood, when she was the only girl playing on an all-boys soccer team.
