Andy Dick
Owen Kronsky on Less Than Perfect

Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Andy learned early in life -- as a traveling "Navy brat" -- to use his sense of humor to gain friends and to keep the attention centered on him. His love for the theater quickly grew after he saw his first stage production. By the end of high school, the young theater fan was president of his drama club and on his way to Illinois Wesleyan University and Columbia College in Chicago, where he also studied with Del Close at Second City.

His work in television commercials helped Andy meet fellow actor/writer Ben Stiller, who then cast him in the short film "Elvis Stories." Andy's additional feature-film credits include "For the Boys," "Inspector Gadget," "Reality Bites," "Best Men," "Road Trip," "Looser" and, most recently, "Zoolander" (again paired with Stiller, who directed the film). He also appeared in a cameo role in Jim Carrey's "The Cable Guy." He'll next be seen in "Old School," a comedy starring Will Ferrell, Luke Wilson and Vince Vaughn, and in the comedy/documentary "You'll Never Weiz in this Town Again," written and directed by Pauly Shore, in which Dick stars as himself opposite Ben Stiller, Sean Penn and Chris Rock. He also recently completed a starring role in the independent film "The Hebrew Hammer," with Adam Goldberg.

Other television credits include a five-year role as the nervous and accident-prone reporter, Matthew Brock, on the critically acclaimed comedy "NewsRadio," as well as on the Emmy Award-winning comedy series "The Ben Stiller Show." He was also a series regular on the short-lived series for NBC, "Go Fish," and had a co-starring role on the series "Get Smart."

Andy's theater credits include "The Best of Second City," "Sony & Shares," "Andy Dick's Circus of Freaks" and "Without a Net." He is also known for his frequent appearances on "Late Show with David Letterman," as Donnie, "the page who likes to suck up," and Ben, "the guy who really likes milk."

Recently starring in, writing and directing his own series for MTV, "The Andy Dick Show," Andy displays his amazing comedic talents in various sketches.

Andy lives in Los Angeles and spends much of his time performing with his band, "The Bitches of the Century," whose debut album will be released in August.
