Biography
[edit]Rohner was born August 5, 1957[2][3] in Palo Alto, California and raised in Los Angeles.[4] He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in theater from Whitman College,[4] where he was a member of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity.
He is known for his role as Rick Morehouse in the 1985 comedy movie Just One of the Guys.[5] He also starred in the 1986 film Modern Girls as Clifford and Bruno X. He is a main character in the 1994 film Caroline at Midnight. Other credits include the films April Fool's Day, Destroyer, The Relic, and The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence). Clayton starred in the short-lived science fiction series E.A.R.T.H. Force and G vs E, and in the 2005 film Formosa.
Rohner appeared on the TV series Murder One as Detective Vince Biggio from 1996 to 1997. His television guest appearances include Miami Vice, Beverly Hills, 90210, Charmed, Crossing Jordan, Angel, and Weeds. In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Too Short a Season," Rohner played the elderly Starfleet Admiral Mark Jameson, who administers an alien medicine to himself and rapidly de-ages; his wife was played by Marsha Hunt. Director Rob Bowman later noted that working with Rohner on the episode was "a real treat," adding that the two spent extensive time off-camera developing the character of Jameson.[6] Rohner also appeared in the award-winning series Into the West and The X-Files (season 6, episode 8). He also appeared in the TV role of Jared Pryor in the short-lived ABC midseason replacement Day Break.
