For better or worse, Jon Cryer will forever be imprinted in the collective public mind as lovable Duckie Dale, the goofball character he portrayed in the 1986 teen flick Pretty in Pink.The offspring of Broadway performers, Cryer was born in New York City April 16, 1965, and made his cinematic bow playing a wisecracking geek opposite Demi Moore in the 1984 comedy No Small Affair.
