From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Victor Raider-Wexler is an American television and film actor.
[edit] Career
Wexler started his career in the 1970s. In the 1980s, Wexler began acting in such episodes as Kate & Allie and Crime Story. However, Wexler's career really catapulted in the 1990s with around 45 credits in the decade. Wexler appeared in The Wonder Years, Friends, Murder One, ER, Married With Children, Alright Already, Dharma & Greg, Everybody Loves Raymond, Without A Trace, and The War At Home. Perhaps because of his stern and low voice, Wexler was trademarked as playing a judge or a doctor. Evidence of this are his appearances in A Friend To Die For, Murder One, Friends, Living Single, Buddy Faro, The Michael Richards Show, Three Sisters, Judging Amy, Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, NYPD Blue, Boston Legal, and Seinfeld.
In the episode of Seinfeld ("The Junior Mint"), Wexler played a witty, mystical and stern doctor who performed abdominal surgery on Elaine's artist boyfriend. While performing the surgery, he never noticed that a junior mint fell into the opening in the body. He also talks with Kramer about retractors the day after Kramer watched a 20/20 episode on the subject.
