Scott Baio mini-bio: Scott Vincent James Baio was born on September 22, 1961 in Brooklyn, New York. He was the third child of Mario and Rose Baio, who had emigrated from Italy. At the young age of nine, Scott decided that he wanted to be an actor. Soon after, his parents took him on interviews and he was able to land small roles in commercials. His first real taste of success occurred in 1976 when he beat out 2,000 other child actors for the starring role in the child gangster film Bugsy Malone(1976). The following year, Scott's popularity soared after he was chosen for the role of Chachi, Fonzi's cousin, on the ABC hit sitcom, "Happy Days" (1974). Soon after, Scott's parents moved him to Hollywood to help him keep up with the demands of his acting career. Throughout his stint on "Happy Days" from 1977 to 1984, Scott still managed to appear in several films, including Skatetown, U.S.A.(1979) and Zapped!(1982) and even starred in three other short-lived sitcoms ("Blansky's Beauties"(1977), "Who's Watching the Kids"(1978), and the "Happy Days"(1974) spin-off "Joanie Loves Chachi"(1982)). This exposure helped him become a major teen idol in the early 1980s.

After "Happy Days" went off the air in 1984, Scott moved to CBS where he was given the starring role on the sitcom "Charles in Charge"(1984). Since then, he's had starring roles on "Baby Talk"(1991) and "Diagnosis Murder"(1993) and guest starring roles on "Veronica's Closet"(1997) and "Arrested Development"(2003). He has even tried his hand behind the camera, directing episodes of "The Wayans Bros."(1995) and "Unhappily Ever After"(1995). In 1997, he was rumored to have died in a car accident, but this was quickly declared as false. He has gained a reputation for dating several high-profile (mostly blonde) actresses, most notably Pamela Anderson, Heather Locklear and former co-star Nicole Eggert. He now lives in Southern California.

Hey Chachi, What was that movie you were in as a kid with Jodie Foster where it was placed in the 60's or 70's? You played this kid that rode a skateboard and flocked Christmas trees in his spare time when he wasn't smoking angeldust-laced joints.
