Rick Schroder — PICS — Rick Schroder is an American actor and filmmaker. He was born in New York City and later moved to California to pursue his entertainment career. He got his start in show business as a child actor, and was previously referred to as “Ricky” after he rose to fame on the sitcom, Silver Spoons. Rick made his film debut as the son of Jon Voight’s character in The Champ — a 1979 remake of the 1931 film of the same title. He later won the Golden Glob for Best New Male Star of the Year in a Motion Picture in 1980. Rick’s acting career didn’t slow down after that. He became known for his roles as “Newt” on the western miniseries Lonesome Dove (1989), and Detective Danny Sorenson in NYPD Blue, which aired its final episode in March of 2005. Rick married Andrea Bernard in 1992. The couple went on to have four children together, before Andrea filed for divorce in 2016. She filed just a few weeks ahead of their 24th wedding anniversary.
