Ricky Schroder started out as a child star and became the youngest Golden Globe award winner at the time. These days, he continues to act generally under the name Rick Schroder and has been causing quite a controversy in recent years.

Rick grew up on Staten Island and started appearing in catalogs. He appeared in over 60 ads by the time he was six years old. His film debut was in the movie The Champ in 1979 and won a Golden Globe for his role in the film. After his success, his parents took him out of school to pursue acting more seriously. He moved to Los Angeles with his mom.

After graduating high school, he went to Mesa State College in Colorado. He continued to work and appeared in shows such as Lonesome Dove, NYPD Blue, Scrubs, and Strong Medicine.
