Answer: Mark Linn-Baker

Mark was born June 17, 1954 in St. Louis, Missouri. In "Perfect Strangers", Larry left Wisconsin and moved to Chicago. His cousin Balki, from Mypos arrived a short time later. It took a while for the two of them to understand each other, since there were cultural differences that caused misunderstandings from time to time.

Some of their situations were heartwarming and hilarious. I remember one of my favorite episodes was when they were going to go on a ski trip. Larry had snow skis on, and trying to learn to walk with them around that small apartment was quite a sight! Mark starred in the TV comedy sitcom "Twins" as Alan Arnold. Alan owned his own business.

He made the bold decision it was time to pass the torch of the company over to his twin daughters. So what could go wrong? Right?
