Mackenzie Astin

I used to get some flack from my agents because I wouldn't even audition for parts where the hero uses violent force to be a hero.

I technically have two last names, which is a lot of fun when you're making airline reservations.

If I couldn't broadcast baseball games, I think I would make a good impression on people.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.

I broke with my religion in college.
