Peter MacNicol (born April 10, 1954 in Dallas, Texas) is probably best known among younger TV viewers for his role as the eccentric attorney John Cage, for which he won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series in 2001 on the show Ally McBeal, but is remembered by previous generations for his similarly over-the-top performance in Ghostbusters II and his role in Sophie's Choice. He currently stars in the drama NUMB3RS as physicist Dr. Larry Fleinhardt. He will also have a regular role in the upcoming sixth season of the Fox hit TV show 24.
