Michael Trucco (born Edward Michael Trucco on June 22, 1970) is an actor. A native of San Mateo, California, he attended Junipero Serra High School. The son of a police officer, he was interested in being one himself until college, when he was attracted to theatrical performance. He took a theatre course for non-majors while he was studying Criminal Justice, but he did so well that he was asked to consider changing majors.
