Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Josiah Bartlet

Answer: Martin Sheen

President of the US. Did you know - there's actually a signature on the Declaration of Independence that is signed as 'Josiah Bartlett?' It's on the far right side if you don't believe me!

2. Who plays the press secretary?

Answer: Allison Janney

Janel plays Donna Moss (Josh's secretary, also a fan of Yo-Yo Ma); Emily Procter plays Ainsley Hayes; and Stockard Channing is the First Lady, Dr. Abbey Bartlet.

3. Who plays the Deputy Communications Director?

Answer: Rob Lowe

Bradley Whitford plays Josh Lyman, the Deputy Chief of Staff; Dule Hill is Charlie, the Aide to the President; Richard Schiff is Toby Zeigler, Communications Director. I must admit, Rob Lowe (Sam Seaborn) is the object of my television affection.

4. Who plays Leo McGarry?

Answer: John Spencer

Chief of Staff, also Bartlet's best friend.

5. Who plays the Presidential Aide?

Answer: Dule Hill

Charlie Young is the name of the character. Oliver Platt occasionally appears as White House Chief Counsel Oliver Babish.

6. Who plays the first lady?

Answer: Stockard Channing

Dr. Abbey Bartlet. She hasn't been on the show in a while, but that's supposedly because Ms. Channing had to undergo ankle surgery.

7. Which occasional guest star plays Oliver Babish?

Answer: Oliver Platt

He's not on the show very often, but enough to be remembered. Babish is the White House Chief Counsel.

8. Who plays the man under whom Donna directly works?

Answer: Bradley Whitford

Josh and Toby are actual characters; John and Bradley are actors. Josh, Donna's boss, is the Deputy Chief of Staff.

9. Who plays the Vice-President in season one?

Answer: Tim Matheson

Vice President John Hoynes.

10. Who plays Zoey Bartlet?

Answer: Elisabeth Moss

Donnatella, or just Donna, is Janel Moloney's character. Nicole Robinson Margaret, aide to Leo. Kim Webster plays Ginger, Aide to the Communications Director, Toby Ziegler. Sorry about the mistake I had before - I said that Nicole Robinson played Carol, Aide to the Press Secretary, but Carol is actually played by Melissa Fitzgerald. Sorry to al CJ and Carol fans!
