Devon Gummersall, b. October 15, 1978 in
Durango,
Colorado is an
American actor. He began acting at the age of 10 and his first major performance was as a guest star on the television series "
Dream On[?]." He appeared in minor guest spots on various T.V. shows and in filmes like "
My Girl 2[?]" until he was cast as the brainy character of Brian Krakow on the cult classic television show "
My So Called Life[?]" in
1994. The show was inexplicably cancelled after only one season (despite it's huge fan base and various awards won, including several
Emmy awards.) It is likely that, were it not for this cancellation, Gummersall's career would have exploded. His talent was duly noted when he was nominated for a
Young Artist Award[?] for his performance as Brian. (He won one as an ensemble with his fellow cast members.)
He has, since 1994, appeared in various television shows and films, most notably as a sexually confused teenager in the 1996 film "It's My Party." He played "Zach" during the first season of the hit show "Felicity[?]," but was quickly cut. He was cast in the television series "The Fugitive" in 2000 but the show was cancelled a year later. As of 2002 he continues to appear in small roles in independent films such as "The Anarchist Cookbook[?]."
