Yes indeed, he’s The King! After paying his dues, Ray Romano appeared on “The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson” and then with Jay Leno. He was eventually invited to appear on “Late Night with David Letterman.” That night, Letterman, recognizing something unique in Romano’s persona, offered him a development deal with his production company. Through that association, the CBS hit, “Everybody Loves Raymond,” was born, an iconic sitcom for which he won three Primetime Emmy Awards (one as an actor and two as producer). A stand-up comedian and actor, he is also known for being the voice of Manny in the Ice Age franchise. Romano is a frequent onscreen presence and has been seen in numerous TV shows and movies, including Men of a Certain Age, Parenthood, The Big Sick, The Irishman, Get Shorty, No Good Deed, and more.
