Fans discuss the actor who plays Newman, confirming he was in Jurassic Park as Nedry and clarifying his other roles, including that he was not in St. Elsewhere or Animal House.
Who plays Newman? He was in Jurrasic Park (as Nedry) and is in a new sitcom as well.
Some friends were telling me he also played Kent "Flounder" Dorfman in Animal House and also had a roll in the TV show St. Elsewhere. Is this true? If not who was that actor?
Thank's in advance.

He was NOT in St Elsewhere, at least not as a regular. (He wasn't Axelrod, although there was some resemblance.) He also did have a part in "Dead Again" as one of Kenneth Branagh's sources. However, I can't remember his name!
I apologize to everyone for not entirely knowing what I'm doing, but I
can answer one of the questions asked by "[email]."
In his article, he comments that he has seen Newman in other projects and
wonders if he was in Animal House and/or the series St. Elsewhere.
I really don't remember Animal House well enough, but I do know that the
character in question in St. Elsewhere is *not* Newman. The rotund,
bespectacled Dr. Elliot Axelrod was played by the actor Stephen Furst.-> From: [email] -> Newsgroups: alt.tv.seinfeld -> Subject: Re: Newman Questions -> Date: 29 Nov 1993 22:36:10 GMT -> Message-ID: -> Organization: Marquette University - Computer Services -> -> In article , [email] -> an) writes: -> >Who plays Newman? -> >He was in Jurrasic Park (as Nedry) and is in a new sitcom as well. -> > -> >Some friends were telling me he also played Kent "Flounder" Dorfman -> >Animal House and also had a roll in the TV show St. Elsewhere.

I believe the actor you are thinking of is STEVEN FURST if I remember correctly.

ACTUALLY, Stephen Furst was the guy in StE and Wayne Knight is Newman.

Wait a minute. Are Stephen Furst & Wayne Knight the same person? What about Former NY Mayor Ed Koch & Frank Purdue? Kramer & Jim Ignatowski?
And who played that fat bald detective in the 70s - Furst or Knight ???
