My Take

Linden Ashby is one of those actors I knew long before I knew his name, which I mean as a compliment. For a generation he's Sheriff Noah Stilinski from Teen Wolf, the steady, decent dad anchoring all that supernatural chaos, and before that he was on Melrose Place. I've got a soft spot for him from Mortal Kombat too. The martial-arts background, karate and taekwondo, clearly fed into his action work and gave his physical performances credibility. He's a dependable character actor who shows up and grounds whatever he's in, and that kind of consistency over decades is genuinely underrated.

Overview

Clarence Linden Garnett Ashby III (born May 23, 1960) is an American actor. On television, he portrayed Brett Cooper on the final two seasons of the Fox soap opera Melrose Place (1997–1999) and Sheriff Noah Stilinski on all six seasons of the MTV supernatural drama Teen Wolf (2011–2017).
