Wishing a very happy 49th birthday to actor/comedian Brad Garrett, born today in 1960.
The three-time Primetime Emmy Award winner has a lot of visibility these days, following the successful 9-season run of Everybody Loves Raymond, and more recently from his lead role on the FOX sitcom ‘Til Death currently in its fourth season. Brad also regularly does appearances on TV Poker tournaments and is still touring as a stand-up comedian (previously covered here).
Brad also has been doing cartoon voice-overs since the 80’s, and will provide the voice of “Giant” in the 2010 animated sequel Hoodwinked 2: Hood vs Evil.
Season 2 of ‘Til Death was released on DVD in January 2009, and Brad is interviewed on the bonus features of The Odd Couple: The Centennial Collection which released on Blu-Ray and DVD in March (presumably from Brad’s involvement with the Broadway play).
Brad was also interviewed recently in NY’s Daily Gazette and Casino City Times about his love for playing poker, his stand-up comedy act, stage and TV work, and background.
