Baboon

The lovable, anxious funnyman who lights up every room.

Richard Kind has built his career on warm, expressive, comedic energy — whether as the frantic, needy Paul Lassiter on 'Spin City' or the hapless Uncle Arthur in 'A Serious Man,' he embodies the baboon's elastic emotionality and gift for being endearingly ridiculous. He's known in Hollywood as one of the most genuinely affectionate and socially effusive people in the business, beloved by co-stars and constantly in demand as a scene-stealing character actor. His humor is instinctive and improvisational, rooted in warmth rather than edge, which is pure baboon energy.
