Rees may be best known to USians of a certain age as a recurring character on "Cheers," but he is probably one of the "hey it's that guy" faces to many more people.

I'm still not sure that will induce me to see Cheers, but yay for regular work!

He's lived in the US for twenty years and has had lots of guest spots on a wide variety of TV shows.

When I looked him up, I realized that I'd remembered him vividly from an episode of My So-Called Life ("The Substitute," 1994) without ever having known the actor's name. He's since been added to my list of reasons to see The West Wing.

He's kept on with the theater all along, not necessarily a way to become famous in the US.

I had wondered. Thanks. Sigh.
