John Rubinstein played Jeff Maitland, the husband of Nancy Lawrence Maitland played by Meredith Baxter Birney, on and off for the entire run. John also wrote all the music for the first six episodes, and then scored the “Family” theme for the next four and a half years. Gary Frank’s career on film began in 1974 when he was cast by director Richard Donner in the television movie "Senior Year", which went on to become the CBS TV series Sons and Daughters. Gary went on to do television movies, features, and an impressive array of guest parts on almost every major TV series in the '80s and '90s.

John is an actor, composer, and director, who made his Broadway debut in 1972 in Bob Fosse’s “Pippin.” He has worked on and off Broadway, on film and television for the past 52 years and there is no stopping him. He is currently playing Dwight D. Eisenhower in Richard Hellesen's new one-man play "Eisenhower: This Piece of Ground” at The Rubicon Theater in Ventura.
