Mitchell Anderson

Highest Rated: 100% The Karen Carpenter Story (1989)

Lowest Rated: 2% Jaws the Revenge (1987)

Birthday: Aug 21, 1961

Birthplace: Jamestown, New York, USA

A tall, handsome, light-haired player, mostly in TV roles, Mitchell Anderson is perhaps best recalled for his two season stint as a colleague of teen wonder "Doogie Howser, M.D." on that ABC sitcom. His recurring role as Ross, the bespectacled, gay violin teacher of young Claudia (Lacey Chabert), on the cult favorite "Party of Five" has also brought him notice, particularly once the actor publicly disclosed his homosexuality at a dinner in L.A. in March of 1996. ("I'm here to tell you I'm a gay actor playing a gay character.")
