Born Feb. 15, 1955, in New York, McDonald got his first professional acting gig as a member of the touring company for the musical "Nightclub Cantata"; when the show reached Los Angeles, the young actor decided to stay. Roles in teen flicks such as Grease 2 (1982) and Where the Boys Are (1984) followed, but it wasn't until McDonald played Geena Davis's despicably moronic husband in 1991's Thelma & Louise that he caught the public's eye.
Since then, McDonald has become a dependably entertaining presence in films such as Terminal Velocity, Spy Kids 2 and Broken Flowers as well as on TV shows including "North Shore."
