Bob Dornan (born April 3, 1933) is a former Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from California and a vocal pro-life advocate. A boisterous former actor and television talk show host, Dornan had a flair for the dramatic that drew him supporters and detractors well beyond his congressional districts. Though never a major power in Washington, he became one of the most well-known members of the House of Representatives and has been described as "one of the leading firebrands among American politicans".
