Initially a hoofer who understudied the legendary Savion Glover in Broadway's The Tap Dance Kid before tapping alongside him in the Tony-nominated musical Bring in 'Da Noise, Bring in 'Da Funk, Hill hung up his dancing shoes when he joined the cast of The West Wing as the president's aide-cum-surrogate son. Although the handsome, perpetually sleepy-eyed player only had a handful of TV guest spots under his belt, his winning turn on Aaron Sorkin's drama showcased his affability, earnestness and intelligence, and quickly made him a small-screen favorite. During his tenure, Hill was nominated for an Emmy (no mean feat considering he was up against three of his better-known costars, Bradley Whitford, Richard Schiff and the late John Spencer, who snagged the statuette) as well as four Image nods, and met and married Nicole Lyn, who had a recurring role on the series. In 2006 he switched gears, signing on to the cable crimedy Psych as the foil to manic leading man James Roday. But Hill consistently stole the spotlight with his deadpan line readings and his hilarious double takes.
