Career

One of Rubbo's earliest film roles was as a wrestler in the critically acclaimed 1982 Robin Williams comedy-drama The World According to Garp. However, he is most known for co-starring as David in Boaz Davidson's The Last American Virgin (1982) and Arney in the 1985 teen film/sex comedy Hot Chili. He later had a minor role in the 1996 movie Striptease.

Rubbo made numerous television appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman throughout the 1980s, most memorably playing Letterman's stepson "Ray Letterman" in a sketch.[3] Since 2010, he has been the executive producer of VIP Television, an entertainment news/lifestyle program focused on South Florida.[4]

Selected filmography

gollark: Huh, apparently my school *already* has timetables and teacher/class assignments for next school year. That might be overoptimistic of them but who knows.
gollark: It seems like one of those things which can't possibly *entirely* work, since you can't just give someone some data (an image) and then prevent them doing stuff you don't like with it, but can work a bit and at least frustrate people without specific domain knowledge.
gollark: Hmm, if you use it in a browser somehow it might not even be able to detect being screenshotted since those have better sandboxing.
gollark: Anyway, the whole "blocking screenshots" thing (or at least notifying people when they get their stuff screenshotted) seems doomed to failure like DRM. Why do Android and iOS even *tell* the app it's being screenshotted? That seems bound to be abused.
gollark: That doesn't sound inconvenient at all!
