Rick Schroder

He is a member of the National Rifle Association. Michelle was set to head the cast of Mark Burnett's television series based on the Global Frequency series of comic books, but the pilot was not picked up. Bush. In 2004, Michelle was part of the cast of Mark Milgard's Dandelion which received rave reviews at the Sundance Film Festival; appeared at the Palm Springs International Short Film Festival, in a short named Al Roach: Private Insectigator alongside James Garner; and also provided a voice for the video game Half-Life 2. Schroder made an appearance on stage at the 2000 Republican National Convention, endorsing Presidential candidate George W. While the show returned for a third season, Michelle did not. He has since moved to Scottsdale, AZ where he resides with his family. Notoriously, several plot points - including her fate - were left open and never resolved.

He still commutes, having appeared in films even as he built a log cabin on his ranch. Michelle played Lynne Kresge, aide to African-American President David Palmer (Dennis Haysbert). Towards the end of the season, Lynne discovered a plot to unseat the President, led by the Vice President Jim Prescott (Alan Dale) and the Chief of Staff Mike Novick (Jude Ciccolella) but the price of her discovery was that she was almost killed. Schroder only acted in NYPD Blue for three years, preferring to leave Hollywood with his family to life full-time on the family's ranch in Colorado. The series, set in real time over the course of one day, had been a critical success during its first season, and the second season opened with the threat of a nuclear bomb in Los Angeles. Still, it came as a surprise to much of the public when it was announced that he had been chosen to act in the series NYPD Blue, notorious for its partial nude scenes. Michelle's next foray into television was in 2002, when she joined the cast of the Kiefer Sutherland-led FOX series 24. His co-starring role in the Western mini-series Lonesome Dove and its sequel, Return to Lonesome Dove, helped Schroder's attempt at maturity. She also appeared in Perfume: a love-it-or-hate-it ensemble film about the world of fashion.

He became well-known as star of the television series Silver Spoons, but as he grew older, he struggled to become known as a serious actor, changing his name from Ricky to Rick and preferring to take roles which helped him to stretch as an actor. In 2001, Michelle learnt British Sign Language for the role of the deaf mute wife of Detective Red Metcalfe (Ken Stott) in the BBC television serial Messiah, and she returned for the sequels in 2003 and 2004. However, the film bombed at the box office is generally forgotten. Michelle herself described it as a "mess that put [her] off series television". In the following year, he made a Walt Disney film called The Last Flight Of Noah's Ark with Elliott Gould in which he gave a generally recognised as good performance. The series was critically hailed, but only aired for a few weeks before being cancelled. Schroder debuted in the 1979 remake of the movie The Champ. Michelle played one of the doctors.

Rick Schroder (born Richard Schroder on April 13, 1970 on Staten Island, New York) (also known as Ricky Schroder) is an American actor who began his career as a child actor. In 2000, Michelle also had a recurring role in the first eight episodes of TV series The District which she followed up with the TV series Wonderland, a series set in a mental institution. For some time, Michelle was in a relationship with her Homicide co-star Reed Diamond. Her character was evantually written out, but she returned in the 2000 TV movie. In 1996, Michelle appeared alongside Stockard Channing in a TV film entitled The Prosecutors and then gained her first major television role in Homicide: Life on the Street playing Dr. Julianna Cox from 1996 to 1998.

For a brief while in the early 1990s, Michelle was reportedly married to actor Ross Kettle. Perhaps because of her huge fan base, the producers asked Michelle back again when launching Star Trek: Voyager but she again declined. Ensign Ro remains a hugely popular character amongst Trek fandom, and Dennis Haysbert, with whom she later starred with in 24 was apparently awestruck to be working alongside Ensign Ro. Michelle also guest starred in an episode of Seinfeld, playing a girlfriend of George Costanza (Jason Alexander), and then returned - to the enjoyment of the fans - for one final episode of TNG entitled Preemptive Strike.

In 1993, she starred with David Duchovny, Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis in the cult film Kalifornia, following this up alongside Kevin Spacey in Swimming with Sharks and in John Carpenter's Escape From L.A.. After this, Forbes and the Trek producers did not get on well, so she moved on. They originally envisioned Ensign Ro as the lead character, but at this stage in her career, Forbes wasn't interested in a long-running television role, so a new character, Kira Nerys (Nana Visitor) was created for the show. With TNG such a hit, the producers decided to make another Trek series: Deep Space Nine.

Ro was a Bajoran whose bad-girl attitude had caused her to make several enemies, but the crew of the Enterprise - particularly Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) took her in. The producers were evidently impressed, as she was brought back in the fifth season to play Ro Laren, a recurring character, for several episodes. In 1991, she had a small role in an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation as the daughter of a character played by David Ogden Stiers. After this role, she continued in theater - an early love of hers - and began with small guest roles in television, to raise her profile.

While little is known about her early life, she moved to New York at age 16 and got a role on the daytime soap opera The Guiding Light which earned her a Daytime Emmy nomination for her dual role as Sonni/Solita. Michelle was born in Austin, Texas on 8 January 1967.
