Jason Marsden (Rhode Island)
Admittedly, there aren’t as many well-known performers to come out of the tiny state of Rhode Island. Being the smallest state in the United States of America, that really isn’t too surprising. But that’s not to say you can’t find success in acting coming from the area.
Jason Marsden is a Rhode Island native who’s been working in the field since 1987. As a child actor, he appeared for a few years on the soap opera series General Hospital. He also starred as Eddie Munster in The Munsters Today, a TV remake of the classic black and white series. Marsden even became a young announcer for the Mickey Mouse Club.
As he got older, Marsden continued to get decent TV roles. He appeared for a while on the sitcom Step by Step. He was also D.J.’s boyfriend (not Steve) at one point on the 90s sitcom Full House. He would only continue to take on much more television work, including providing voices for many animated programs. Marsden continues to work in the field, and although he doesn’t have a household name at this point, chances are you’ve seen his face and heard his voice quite a bit.
