Larry Miller Biography (2)

Veteran actor and comedian Larry Miller brought everything including his own costumes to the role of Principal Jindraike. "This is a guy who's a huge jerk who thinks he's doing a great job. To me, he would dress like Mickey Rourke in ‘The Pope of Greenwich Village' diamond rings, solid gold watches, garish ID bracelets, silk shirts with matching ties, purple suits I think the audience should be thinking, ‘Who is that idiot?'"

Miller has appeared in over 40 feature films, including Pretty Woman, Necessary Roughness, L.A. Story, Corrina, Corrina, The Nutty Professor and its sequel, Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps, Waiting for Guffman, Runaway Bride, Ten Things I Hate About You, and, most recently, What's the Worst That Could Happen? and Disney's The Princess Diaries. Last year, Miller wrote and starred in Pros & Cons, which won him the Best Actor Award at the 2000 U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen.

Miller recently finished performing on Broadway in Neil Simon's critically-acclaimed play, The Dinner Party.

He has been a regular on such television series as Life's Work for ABC and Pursuit of Happiness for NBC. Other television appearances include guest-starring roles on 3rd Rock from the Sun, Seinfeld, Mad About You, and a memorable dramatic stint as a recurring character on the NBC hit Law and Order.
