Biography: Ronny Cox is a superbly talented actor, singer-songwriter, and musician who has been consistently active in Hollywood for more than 40 years portraying a diverse range of characters. Born in Cloudcroft, New Mexico, Cox received positive reviews for his first film role, his portrayal of ill-fated businessman Drew Ballinger in the terrifying backwoods thriller Defensa (1972), with Cox featuring in the entertaining "Duelling Banjos" sequence of the film. Following this promising start, Cox regularly guest-starred in numerous television series before scoring the lead in the short-lived family drama La maravillosa familia Apple (1974) and grabbing the critics' attention again with an excellent performance in the Emmy-nominated TV movie Un caso de violación (1974).Interestingly, Cox was often at his  (see all) best playing rigorous authority figures, usually in law enforcement or military roles, including as a detective in the TV movie ¿Quién es la Dalia Negra? (1975), alongside Charlton Heston in the submarine drama Alerta roja: Neptuno hundido (1978), as a Los Angeles detective pursuing cop killers in El campo de cebollas (1979), and alongside then-rising stars Tom Cruise and Sean Penn in the powerful Taps, más allá del honor (1981). The 1980s was a high-profile decade for Cox, with strong supporting roles in several blockbusters playing strong-willed figures on both sides of the law. Cox starred alongside box office sensation Eddie Murphy in the mega-hit Superdetective en Hollywood (1984) and its sequel, Superdetective en Hollywood II (1987), as well as portraying sinister company executives in the futuristic sci-fi action films RoboCop (1987) and Desafío total (1990).Throughout the 1990s, Cox was again prolific, appearing in many television series, feature films, and high-caliber TV movies. He took control of the USS Enterprise for two episodes as Captain Edward Jellico in Star Trek: La nueva generación (1987), and contributed entertaining performances in Murder at 1600 (Asesinato en la Casa Blanca) (1997), Edición anterior (1996), Las fuerzas de la naturaleza (1999), and the chilling tale Perfect Murder, Perfect Town: JonBenét and the City of Boulder (2000). Cox has continued to remain busy with more recent performances in Stargate SG-1 (1997), Ley y orden: Unidad de Víctimas Especiales (1999), and the highly popular Mujeres desesperadas (2004). However, when he's not in front of the cameras, Cox can be found touring and demonstrating his musical talents at various music festivals and theater shows and, to date, he has released ten albums (four of them live performances)-an eclectic mixture of jazz, folk, and western tunes.
