Timeline
Bruce Travis McGill (born July 11, 1950) is an American actor.
McGill has starred in many films, perhaps his most well-known role being "D-Day" in the 1978 comedy classic National Lampoon's Animal House, a role McGill was desperate to take at the time, recalling his days as a young unemployed actor sitting in a New York City casting office.
In Animal House, he played the William Tell Overture by drumming his fingers on his windpipe.
He duplicated this talent in MacGyver, playing "Rock-The-Cradle" to lull a child in his care to sleep.
Some of his films include Into the Night, Wildcats, The Last Boy Scout, My Cousin Vinny, Cliffhanger, Timecop, Black Sheep, Courage Under Fire, Rosewood, Three Fugitives, Club Paradise, The Legend of Bagger Vance, The Sum of All Fears, Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde, Matchstick Men, Runaway Jury, Cinderella Man, Outlaw Trail: The Treasure of Butch Cassidy, and Vantage Point.

McGill also played Major Ed Ryan in the third season Babylon 5 episode "Severed Dreams" (which won the 1997 Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation).
Babylon 5 producer J. Michael Straczynski originally intended for Everett McGill to play the role.
However he did not know McGill's first name, so when he asked to have McGill contacted, Straczynski was asked if he meant Bruce McGill, to which he replied yes.
Even though it became apparent to Straczynski when Bruce McGill met him to discuss the role that he was not the McGill Straczynski had in mind, Straczynski decided to use him instead.
McGill also had a small role in a season 3 episode of Numb3rs as well as a season 3 episode of Psych.
McGill portrayed the character of veteran Boston Police Homicide Detective Vince Korsak on the TNT television crime drama, Rizzoli & Isles.
The character of Korsak is the mentor and friend of Detective Jane Rizzoli, portrayed by Angie Harmon.
Korsak saved Rizzoli's life from serial killer, Charles Hoyt.
Korsak shot Hoyt's partner just before Hoyt was about to kill Rizzoli with a knife.
In the episode "She Works Hard for the Money" (season 1 episode 4) Korsak is asked where he went to college.
He responds "Didn't. Watched Animal House a few times."
McGill also had a recurring voice role on The Cleveland Show as Lloyd Waterman, the homosexual owner of Waterman Cable, where Cleveland Brown is employed as a cable installer.
