Barry Van Dyke
Barry Van Dyke is the second son of legendary entertainer, Dick Van Dyke. He has one older brother, Christian, and two younger sisters, Stacy and Carrie Beth.
Barry's TV debut was as Florian, a violin-toting nine year old in "The Talented Neighborhood" episode of the classic Dick Van Dyke show. He worked behind the scenes on subsequent ventures of his father's, and has
co-starred with him in two series, The Van Dyke Show, and Diagnosis Murder.
Diagnosis Murder begins its eighth season on the CBS network on October 5, 2000. Quite an accomplishment in the TV world these days!
Barry (and Diagnosis Murder) can also be seen nightly in syndication on the Pax network. Barry's other television work includes Galactica 1980, Airwolf (4th season), Gun Shy, Mr. Mom, and The Redd Foxx Show, as well as numerous guest appearances. His films include Foxfire Light, It Happened at Lakewood Manor (aka ANTS!) and Casino (1980).
Barry met his wife, Mary, when they were both sixteen and he was working as a ticket-taker at a neighborhood movie theatre. Seven years later they were married, and they still are. They have four children, Carey, Shane, Wes and Taryn. All of Barry's kids have guest-starred with their Dad and Grandpa, in scripts written by Barry, on Diagnosis Murder.
Barry is an avid motorcyclist with special enthusiasm for dirt bikes. He has participated in protest rides to preserve the rights of motorcyclists to fair use of public lands. He also loves to surf and once rescued a drowning person from the ocean off Baja. Not just a screen hero, but the real thing! | Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 Next
