William Sanderson

Highest Rated: 100% Raggedy Man (1981)

Lowest Rated: 0% Wagons East! (1994)

Birthday: Jan 10, 1944

Birthplace: Memphis, Tennessee, USA

The Southern drawl, droopy eyes, stringy hair and face cracked by the elements lend themselves to playing hicks and 'white trash' roles, and William Sanderson has played them for over twenty years. He is perhaps best recalled as Larry, the speaking member of a trio of brothers on the long-running CBS series "Newhart."
