Wesley Mann (born September 6, 1963) is an American character
actor.Many of Mann's roles are minor and he frequently delivers only a
handful of lines, but he has a somewhat distinctive appearance, that
of a long-suffering, vaguely glib demeanor that makes him easily
recognizable whenever he shows up in a film or on television. He is,
by definition, a character actor, and thus he has never performed a
lead role.His acting career began in the early 1980s, landing guest
roles on mainstay sitcoms The Golden Girls and Night Court, and
appearances in Who's Harry Crumb? and My Stepmother Is An Alien. His
distinctive face and demeanor were featured prominently in 1989's Back
to the Future Part II, as the high school student who thinks that
Marty has just robbed Biff of his wallet. As Biff regains
consciousness after having been knocked out by George, Mann (credited
as "CPR Kid," but later labeled by fans as the Wallet Guy) shouts "I
think he took your wallet!" after Biff, then turns back to the other
onlookers and repeats "I think he took his wallet."Mann has also
appeared in the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival in Garrison, New
York, for nine seasons.
