Your wit, warmth, and wholehearted dedication have inspired generations of fans and fellow actors alike. ✨🎭
Breakout on “Taxi” 🚕📺: As the irrepressible Louie De Palma, you turned a supporting role into an Emmy-winning performance.

Filmmaker & Producer 🎥✍️: Behind the camera, you’ve left your mark as a director and producer—helming films like The War of the Roses and Death to Smoochy, and championing projects that balance humor with humanity.
