Alex Saxon is an American actor known for playing Wyatt in The Fosters, Max in Finding Carter, and Ace in Nancy Drew.

[1] In 2013, Saxon was cast in a recurring role on The Fosters, a Freeform drama created by Peter Paige and Bradley Bredeweg.

Saxon was only initially hired for the pilot episode of the series but was brought back on a recurring basis after show runner Terri Minsky was impressed by his first scene.

But a month later, he was told that decision had been reversed as both Minsky and network executives found that Saxon as Max was so likeable.

[3] In March 2019, Saxon was cast as Ace in The CW mystery series Nancy Drew.
