    A tv and movie actor from Ohio. hide show

    Alan Ruck was one of the most underrated actors of all time he was very underappreciated. He could do comedy shows/movies and serious shows/movies. Ruck was in Ferris Buellers Day off, he was in Spin City, he was in Cheaper By the Dozen, and the last thing he has done is the Bronx is Burning. Ruck was awesome in Ferri's day off, he acted as the kid who was bullied by his parents who finnaly rebelled. Then in Spin City he was the roommate of a gay man and they worked in city hall. In Cheaper By the Dozen he acted as a rich neighbor and in the Bronx is Burning he was a reporter for a new york newspaper. Ruck your funny guy keep up the acting.
