Craig T. Nelson as Zeek Braverman on Parenthood
Nelson left Spokane, Washington, behind to study at the University of Arizona before setting out for Hollywood. His gamble paid off, and he’s starred in over 75 television shows and movies since 1971—even costarring as the spouse of current TV wife Bonnie Bedelia in the TV movie Alex: The Life of a Child. Although he can seem gruff and more interested in his acting career than the needs of his kids and grandkids, Zeek’s wife and family are his whole world. Nelson’s subtle, heart-wrenching speeches get us every time.
