Funnyman Anthony Anderson wasn't sure Hollywood was ready for his "body type." But he's used his large frame to his advantage. His work on the small screen was so impressive that David Kelly created a role for him on Ally McBeal. Anderson's film credits include Me, Myself & Irene and the hit, Barbershop. He currently stars in All About the Andersons -- a semi-autobiographical series he created and produces.
