Életrajz
RICHARD KIND, a success on stage, screen and television, continues to redefine the term character actor. Television viewers perhaps best know him as Paul Lassiter, the irrepressible press secretary to the mayor of New York on the ABC series Spin City.
In feature films, Kind starred in The Hereafter, directed by Clint Eastwood. His role as Uncle Arthur in the Coen Brothers‘ Oscar®-nominated A Serious Man was critically lauded worldwide. He has appeared in the Independent Spirit Award winning films The Visitor and The Station Agent, both directed by Tom McCarthy; as Dr. Robert Farley in the Miramax feature Spymate; in the Sundance Film Johns, directed by Scott Silver; and in The Grand directed by Zak Penn.
Richard‘s feature credits also include Hacks, Stargate and Mr. Saturday Night. As an animated voice, he can be heard as a van in the Disney/Pixar feature Cars, a dimwitted and obnoxious grasshopper in A Bug‘s Life and Tom in Tom and Jerry (still the only voice actor ever to portray the character).
In television, besides his infamous role on Spin City, Kind has also appeared as Fran‘s ex-husband Mark on NBC‘s Mad About You.
He has guest-starred on Scrubs, Still Standing, The Division and Miss Match, and has had a recurring role on Curb Your Enthusiasm, with Larry David. Additional TV credits include stints as a series regular on Carol and Company with Carol Burnett, the ABC series Blue Skies and A Whole New Ball Game, Unsub and Stargate Atlantis.
On stage, the actor has starred as Max Bialystock in Mel Brooks‘ smash-hit Broadway musical The Producers at the St. James Theater in New York. He also appeared on Broadway in Charles Busch‘s smash-hit comedy The Tale of the Allergist‘s Wife. He starred in Candide at the New York City Opera at Lincoln Center as well as The Lady in Question at the Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor, New York.
He starred in the Stephen Sondheim musical Bounce, directed by Hal Prince, and at the Williamstown Theatre Festival, he played opposite Eric Stoltz and Christopher Evan Welsh in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. Other theatre credits include Sly Fox and Larry Gelbart‘s Power Failure, directed by Arthur Penn and staged on Broadway and at the Actors Studio Free Theatre Company.
Kind started his career in Chicago with the Practical Theatre Company, founded by Julia Louis- Dreyfus, Brad Hill and Gary Kroeger. He was then hired by Second City, where he honed his comedic talents in such productions as How Green Were My Values, John, Paul, Sartre and Ringo and True Midwest.
