A fixture on the NBC Thursday night lineup for over a decade, Noah Wyle was a relatively unknown actor when he was cast as sweetly earnest young doctor John Carter on NBC's top-rated medical drama "ER" (NBC, 1994- 2009). Despite a few supporting feature film roles in "A Few Good Men" (1992) and Oliver Stone's "W." (2008), the stage-trained actor's boyish looks and bookish persona failed to translate as effectively to the big screen. However Wyle did enjoy significant critical success with made-for-TV movies including the examination of high-tech culture "Pirates of Silicon Valley" (1999), in which he portrayed Apple CEO Steve Jobs. In "The Librarian" adventure fantasy series (TNT, 2002, 2004, 2006), Wyle starred as a world-traveled scholar entrusted with unraveling ancient mysteries, and with these roles, maintained his reputation as a go-to for likable, intellectual types with a dash of good-natured wit.
