Bob Saget (born May 17, 1956 in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania) is an American actor
and stand-up comedian best known for his role as a
father in the American Broadcasting Company|ABC
sitcom Full House from 1987 to 1995 and as host of
the TV home video show America's Funniest Home
Videos from 1990 to 1997.

Saget attended Abington Senior High School and is
well distinguished there on its Hall of Fame. He
attended college at Temple University, where he
made a student film, Through Adam's Eyes, which
received an award of merit in the Student Academy
Awards in 1978.

career went on to flourish through small but
meaningful gigs. Contrary to his saccharine-sweet
appearance on Full House, he is also known for his
raunchy, vulgar stand-up routines.  His parents
were William Saget (1924-1991) and Hillary Saget
(1926-2001).

After a failed attempt at another sitcom in 2001,
Saget has turned to directing. He is currently
acting on stage in New York.

Saget had a sister, Gay, who died of scleroderma.
Her life story was the inspiration for Saget's ABC
television movie which recieved low ratings
possibly due to the depressing subject matter.

When Bob was a child he broke his nose two times
playing basketball, which explains the
irregularity.
