John Pirruccello

In 2004 John moved to Los Angeles. We all know what that was about. He immediately went to Hollywood Boulevard to receive his star on the Walk of Fame, but as it turns out there is a waiting list and endless bureaucracy. While waiting for the paper work to clear, John has kept busy working steadily in voiceover, television, film and in the theater. He has also performed stand-up all around LA, including at The Improv and The Comedy Store. It’s been a great ride so far.

He has had the good fortune to be and play his son’s father on Thundercats and Two And A Half Men. He performed in “Harrison Texas,” two one acts by Horton Foote staged by Second Story and directed by Scott Paulin and attended by Mr. Foote himself. He played Clara Mamet’s father in her world premier play “Paris,” directed by Paul Sand. He has had many memorable roles on many television shows, including playing Gregor Hobart on The Mentalist in star Simon Baker’s debut directing turn on the show in an episode written by creator Bruno Heller.
