Robert Picardo is an American actor whose career spans Broadway, film, and television.

Picardo moved to New York, studied acting at Circle in the Square, and made his Broadway debut in the lead role of the comedy "Gemini." He later appeared in "Tribute," "Geniuses," and "Beyond Therapy," and received a Drama-Logue Award for his performance in "The Normal Heart" at Berkeley Repertory Theater.
Picardo transitioned to film and television with roles such as Eddie Quist in the Joe Dante film "The Howling" and the robotic Johnny Cab in "Total Recall."
