professional debut in 1971 as part of the Lincoln Center RepertoryCompany. Regional theater productions included Chemin de Fer (in Chicago with Dennis Franz), Death of a Salesman, and Love's Labor Lost.  A trained singer, Kline debuted on Broadway in City of Angels (1990).  His first TV role was in 1976 on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and Kline worked regularly on the small screen throughout his early career, appearing on Maude (1978), Eight Is Enough (1977), and multiple episodes of The Love Boat and Fantasy Island.  However, his seven seasons as two-timing used car salesman Larry Dallas are what made him a household name.  Once the show wrapped, Kline landed in another sitcom, It's a Living (1985 -1989), and made guest appearances on popular shows like St. Elsewhere (1987), L.A. Law (1994), Married with Children (1996), and he even had a run on daytime soap, The Bold and the Beautiful (1995-1996).  More recently, Kline has starred in episodes of That '70s Show (1999), ER (2004), and NYPD Blue (2004).  Kline's film debut was in Serpico (1976), and he's appeared in Problem Child (1990) with Three's Company co-star Ritter, and in Barry Levinson's Liberty Heights (1999).  The versatile Kline has also directed theater, most recently Computer Geek (2006) at the Chicago Improv, and his TV directing credits include episodes of Evening Shade (1991) and Harry and the Hendersons (1991). Married, and father to daughter Colby, Kline continues to appear on the stage and screen.
