For the past five years Thomas Haden Church has showcased his talents as 
the eccentric, existentialist maintenance man and "Simon Says" champion, 
Lowell Mather, on the NBC series, Wings.  Although Wings, which is 
produced by the same team that produced Cheers, was renewed for two more 
seasons, Church decided it was time to move on.  Until his contract runs 
out, Church will continue to appear on Wings, but he has found a new 
outlet for his versatile acting skills as the arrogant advertising 
executive Ned in Ned and Stacey.

Church, 34, grew up in south Texas where he helped run a family 
lawn-care  business with his father.  When he was in high school he had 
a job picking up roadkill.  Naturally he thinks acting is better, and 
has had remarkably good luck at it within months after he arrived in 
Hollywood.  

His first role was a brief, and memorable, appearance on Cheers: He got 
lots of laughs and an invitation to audition for the role of Brian on 
Wings.  He didn't get the part, and you know the rest. 

But, if you don't know--or want to know more--ask Church questions from 
February 17 through 24 when he is a guest on our Ask the Texan.
