About Rich Skidmore
Known for his versatility and commanding presence laced with comedic turns, 7-time Emmy-winning actor and spokesperson Rich Skidmore flourished as a TV news investigative journalist long before he took to the stage and screen.

While working as the "3 On Your Side" guy for KTVK-3TV in Phoenix by day, Rich launched his acting career, landing the lead role of Paul Bratter in Neil Simon's "Barefoot in the Park", which he rehearsed by night. After starring in three more plays there, "Catch Me if You Can" (as Harry) for which he won a Best Actor award, the melodrama "Love Rides the Rails" (as the hero Truman), and "The Good Doctor" (as The Seducer and Antosha), Rich decided it was time to put down his pen and move to Los Angeles. Not long after arriving, he booked co-star roles on the hit shows The Practice, Criminal Minds and Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where he's been a recurring principal actor (various characters) and voice-over artist for more than a decade.More recently, Rich shot two lead roles in the same TV pilot, Sweet Toxins (as twins Paul and Don Brinks), strong supporting roles in the Google interactive web series End Game (as spy/handler Pinstripe), and in the pilot Internal Affairs (as the Mayor of LA). His comedic skills landed him several roles on Comedy Central (as Don Cinespace in Funny or Die, as a cop in Workaholics, and as an airline pilot in Important Things with Demetri Martin) and in CBS's The McCarthys (as a cruise ship captain).Some of Rich's work on the big screen includes the feature film Time Trap (as Rich Pintauro), the short film A Stark Reality (as the Opioid Doctor), and Miss Congeniality 2 (as an FBI agent).Rich's roots in shooting "straight down the barrel" have helped him serve as national spokesperson for numerous health and financial campaigns, including Victoza (pharma), Schwab Financial, Sylmark and MyoHealth (DRTV).
