Genial young lead who came to prominence playing Neil Simon's alter ego, Eugene Jerome, in Brighton Beach Memoirs (1986). Silverman had played the part on Broadway and subsequently appeared in Simon's followup plays, "Biloxi Blues" and "Broadway Bound," recreating his part in the TV-movie adaptation of the latter. Silverman debuted onscreen in Girls Just Want to Have Fun (1985) and has appeared in Caddyshack II, Stealing Home (both 1988), Class Action (1991), Breaking the Rules, Death Becomes Her and the telefilm For Richer, For Poorer (all 1992), although he is probably best known as the hapless insurance executive whoalong with Andrew McCarthy-must contend with a corpse in Weekend at Bernie's (1989) and the inevitable Weekend at Bernie's II (1993). Silverman was a regular on the TV sitcom "Gimme a Break!" from 1984 to 1986. |  |
