| 2 | Stephen Root (born November 17, 1951 in Sarasota, Florida) is an extremely prolific American actor, comedian, and voice actor. He often works with Creator/MikeJudge, and is perhaps best known for his iconic role as Milton Waddams in the cult classic ''Film/OfficeSpace''. He's also known for his roles ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'', voicing Bill Dauterive and Buck Strickland. He made a big impression on ''Series/NewsRadio'' fans as maybe-BenevolentBoss Jimmy James. He also works frequently with the [[Creator/TheCoenBrothers Coen Brothers]] and is often typecast in racism-related projects, such as playing a blind racist radio station manager in ''Film/OBrotherWhereArtThou'', the {{Fantastic Racis|m}}t [[Recap/TeenTitansS4E6Troq Val-Yor]] in a VerySpecialEpisode of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003'', another blind man in ''Film/GetOut2017'' and finally Hawthorne Abendsen in the Nazi/antisemitism-dominated world-set ''Series/TheManInTheHighCastle''. |
