Actor
Dennis Haskins is probably best known for the role of Bayside High principal Mr. Belding on the teen sitcom
Saved by the Bell. Long before he played the lovable school administrator,
Haskins worked as a music agent and concert promoter. He soon forayed into acting, however, playing a recurring role on
The Dukes of Hazzard throughout the early '80s and appearing on the show
Magnum, P.I. Then, in 1990,
Haskins scored the iconic role on
Saved by the Bell that would make him such a familiar face, and continued with the show for its entire four-year run. He then appeared on all four seasons of
Saved by the Bell: The New Class for an additional four seasons, finally wrapping up the series in 1999.
Haskins moved on and explored a variety of roles following the conclusion of the
Saved by the Bell franchise. In 2003, he appeared in the party film
Going Down, and in 2006 he played Sheriff Thomas in the family adventure
The Treasure of Painted Forest. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide
