JOHN ASTIN | 92

Does Addams Family ring a bell? No bias, but we think this actor portrayed the character of Gomez Addams the best. We’re talking about John Astin, whose iconic role was the patriarch in the 1960s sitcom, The Addams Family. He also reprised the role when it became a television film, entitled Halloween with the New Addams Family. Aside from acting, he is also a skilled TV director and is, in fact, a professor at Johns Hopkins University, the same institution where he earned his degree in drama.

Who would have thought that exploring the limelight and teaching can both be accomplished? There are different opportunities thrown at him yet, he focused on his passion. Astin has been married thrice and has five children. Though marriage never really worked for him the first two takes, he eventually settled with the one. He lives in Baltimore, Maryland, together with his wife since 1989.
