Brian Baumgartner revisits his roots

Like his fellow cast members, Brian Baumgartner, found himself with some free time during the writer’s strike and decided to expand his horizons rather than veg-out on the couch. Brian went back to his old stomping grounds, Minneapolis, to be a celebrity judge for Last Comic Standing.

Brian, a twin city native, honed his acting skills for eight years at the Theater De La Jeune Lune in Minneapolis before heading to Hollywood in 2003.

Brian enjoyed his hosting stint in his hometown, but is thrilled to be back on The Office set.

“The last few months have been incredibly difficult, I will not lie,” Baumgartner admitted.  “We’ve [he and his Office co-stars] missed being together.  “I had a bottle of champagne that had sat in my refrigerator for three months and I enjoyed drinking it very much last week when the strike was over.”
