SCOTT BAIO ACTOR AND PRODUCER MONDAY Scott Baio is an actor and television producer. He landed his first starring role in the 1976 movie Bugsy Malone and is known for portraying memorable characters on several hit television shows, including Happy Days, Joanie Loves Chachi, and Charles In Charge. More recently, he has appeared in the Emmy Award-winning show Arrested Development and the Nick at Nite comedy See Dad Run, which he also produces. When he was young, Baio campaigned for Ronald Reagan, and in the 2016 GOP primary, he endorsed presumptive nominee Donald Trump. Baio lives in California with his wife, Renee; daughter, Bailey; and stepdaughter, Kalyn. When their daughter was an infant, she was misdiagnosed with a metabolic disorder after a false positive on a medical test. Baio and his wife endured 10 weeks of fear and grief, and when a second round of testing revealed their daughter was healthy, they wanted to help families affected by metabolic disorders. They founded the Bailey Baio Angel Foundation, which heightens awareness about the importance of newborn screenings, works to require those screenings in all 50 states, and provides support to children and families impacted by these disorders.
