Mark Salling

Mark Salling skyrocketed to fame playing the egocentric yet sweet jock Noah "Puck" Puckerman on the award-winning musical comedy "Glee" (Fox, 2009-15), a television series that blended witty comedy, teen angst, and show- stopping musical numbers to great effect. The story of a small town high school and the social outcasts that make up its struggling yet talented glee club, the Ryan Murphy-created "Glee" became an overnight phenomenon when it premiered to huge ratings in early 2009. As the mohawk-sporting alpha male Puck, Salling's character was the show's biggest revelation - that the power of song could turn even the meanest school bully into a proper leading man. In December 2015, Salling's own life took a dark turn when he was arrested and charged with counts of receiving and possessing child pornography. He pleaded guilty in September 2017 and was expected to serve four to seven years in jail, in addition to participating in a treatment program and being required to register as a sex offender. On January 30, 2018, Salling was found dead near his home in Los Angeles, having committed suicide weeks before his sentencing.
