RETURN TO THE LIMELIGHT

The actor took a long break from acting to pursue life as a "normal" teenager, attending public school in his hometown, and enjoying his teenage and young adulthood years away from the spotlight.

Lipnicki eventually returned to acting, guest-starring on many successful television shows such as "Monk," "Family Guy," and "Glen Martin DDS."

He also starred as a lead actor in the award-winning independent film called "When Zachary Beaver Came to Town."
