Haim, a native of Toronto, credits James Dean and Cybill Shepherd as his favorite actors. His friendship with Corey Feldman was widely publicized during the 80's, and they were dubbed The two Coreys.
One of his first appearances on 1980s teen movies was in Lucas[?], alongside Charlie Sheen[?]. He and Feldman then made The Goonies, after which their faces started appearing on the covers of Tiger Beat, 16[?], Teen Beat[?] and the other teen magazines, making both him and his friend Feldman teen-idols. Then, in 1988, he made the movie License to Drive[?], where he undertook the main character and Feldman had a secondary role. For their next movie, 1989's Dream a Little Dream[?], they reversed roles, with Feldman on the lead and Haim as a secondary character.
After the 80s decade, his career faded. During the 1990s, he made a low budget where he played a bank robber, and the movie spanned a few sequels, but other than that, he hasnt been seen acting as much since the time he was a heartrob.
