Ian Ziering

Ian Ziering interests me as a study in career survival. He became a generation's idea of cool as Steve Sanders on Beverly Hills, 90210, the exact role that usually traps an actor forever. Instead he kept moving, lending his voice to Harry Osborn and to Biker Mice from Mars, then, nearing fifty, headlining the gloriously absurd Sharknado films and engineering a genuine resurgence. What I admire is the lack of vanity: he leaned into the joke and committed completely. Longevity in this business rewards the flexible, not the precious, and Ziering clearly understood that better than most of his peers.
