Edward Hibbert

Edward Hibbert (born September 9, 1955 on Long Island, New York) is an American actor, voice actor, and literary agent.

He was raised in England, where he attended London's Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. He returned to the U.S. in the mid-1980s. He has one sister.

He is probably best known for his recurring role on "Frasier" as Gil Chesterton, KACL's pompous, effete, closeted homosexual, yet at times silly, restaurant critic. Hibbert himself is openly gay.cite web |title=Hibbert on: out actor Edward Hibbert talks about the Noises Off revival, his side career as an agent, and the best antidote to anthrax |work=The Advocate |date=2001-12-25 |url=http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1589/is_2001_Dec_25/ai_83451277 |first=Michael |last=Glitz |accessdate=2007-06-21]
