In film: Elliott Blitzer in Quentin Tarantino's True Romance, Serge in Beverly Hills Cop I and III, Eduardo in The First Wives Club and Barry in Risky Business, among many others. In the space of a very few (and very heady) months in 2000, eighteen years into his career, he made both his Broadway musical theater and Shakespearean debuts. The alpha and omega of his character work in TV are the wide-eyed innocent Balki on the series Perfect Strangers and the mass-murdering cannibal on NCIS. Somewhere in between, perhaps at gamma, lies his latest TV role as Flip Brightman, the sex-addicted TV weatherman on Ray Donovan. He recently starred in 24 episodes of The Bronson Pinchot Project which documented his passion (okay, obsession) for restoring Greek revival houses.
