Bryan Ray "Skeet" Ulrich (born January 20, 1970, in Lynchburg, Virginia) is an American actor. Ulrich is perhaps most notable for his physical resemblance to actor Johnny Depp.

Early life

---

Ulrich was raised in North Carolina by his father (his parents were divorced). His father reportedly misspelled Bryan's first name on the birth certificate as "Brain". The nickname "Skeet" originated from the nickname "Skeeter" he was given by his Little League coach due to his small stature (like that of a mosquito). Along with his slight frame he had poor health, including numerous bouts with pneumonia and had open heart surgery at the age of 10. He also had nicknames such as "Chester" and "Mosquito".

Education

---

Ulrich graduated from Northwest Cabarrus High School, where he was a soccer standout. After initially enrolling at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington to study Marine Biology, he switched to New York University, and was subsequently noticed by playwright David Mamet.
