JDB Actor BINGO: Day X

Wow, ten days in. I’m honestly a little surprised that nobody’s won yet. I’m not sure if that means we’ve been doing a good job or a bad job of picking actors.

Anyway, today we have Ron Rifkin! Ron is probably best known for playing the Rambaldi-hunting Arvin Sloane on Alias, though he’s now spent the last three years playing Saul Holden on Brothers & Sisters. Ron has appeared on many, many shows over his 40+ year career, including ER, Law & Order, Hill Street Blues, Kojak, the Rockford Files, and Barnaby Jones. Hopefully he’l help fill in some of those older shows on your cards!

Along with his TV and film work, Ron has also done a lot of theatre. In 1998 he won a Tony for his performance in Cabaret. On the subject of Cabaret, Ron looks quit similar to the star of the Cabaret movie, Joel Grey. They’re often mistaken for each other, something that was actually used as a plot during the fourth season of Alias.
