Alex D. Linz
In 1993, at the age of four, Linz told his mother he wanted to be in TV commercials and, after several auditions, won his first for JC Penney, followed by a series of spots for McDonald's. He broke into acting in 1995, appearing on daytime's "The Young and the Restless" (CBS), as well as primetime episodes of "Cybill" (CBS), "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman" (ABC), and "Step by Step" (ABC). That same year, he made his TV-movie debut in a small role in "Danielle Steel's 'Vanished'" (NBC). Linz had the lead in a CBS TV-movie, "The Uninvited" (1996), playing a boy who moves with his family to a new home only to find a spirit in the house covets him.
