He's been in the following movies I know him from:

On TV, among many other shows, he's known of COURSE as Dan Conner from "Roseanne" and "The Conners" and as Speaker Of The House/President Glen-Allen Walken on "The West Wing".  And he's hosted Saturday Night Live 13 times! (the only people to have hosted more times are Alec Baldwin with 16 and Steve Martin with 15!)

Badass actor!
