By LAUREN MORASKI
Throughout his long and varied career, actor Joe Mantegna has starred in films ranging from "Celebrity" to "The Godfather Part III." With that, has come a chance to work alongside excellent directors, too. "God, I've worked with some of the greatest directors in the world," Mantegna said.

CRIMINAL MINDS Season 10 - 1020. A Place at the Table - Toluca Times: How CM Got Ed Asner
Multi-Emmy Award Winner to Appear on ‘CRIMINAL MINDS’ The Tolucan Times Helps Pair Up ED ASNER with CBS’ #1 Hit Show ~ Episode airs April 15th!
Next Wednesday at 9pm PST is Must-See TV and not only because the #1 show on CBS ‘Criminal Minds’ airs in that coveted time slot… Entertainment legend Ed Asner will guest star on the hit series the evening of April 15th; the award-winning actor will portray “Aaron Hotchner”’s Father-In-Law.

CRIMINAL MINDS Season 10 - 1012. Anonymous - Joe Mantegna & Danny Ramm's Video Interview
If not for a high draft number, Joe Mantegna might have chosen a career in the military instead of a forty-year career in entertainment. On Criminal Minds, Mantegna portrays David Rossi, an ex-FBI agent who was also once a Marine veteran of the Vietnam War. This aspect of his character is especially important to Mantegna, who comes from a military family and is very passionate about military and veterans' issues.
In the video above, Mantegna talks about his experiences with the military and why veterans mean so much to him. He and freelance writer Danny Ramm also talk about how and why they decided to highlight the plight of...

CRIMINAL MINDS Season 10 - 1009. Fate - TVGuide Exclusive: Meet Rossi's… Daughter?!
Rossi is getting a blast from the past on Criminal Minds — and we're not talking about his second wife.
While Wednesday's episode (9/8c, CBS) will feature a flashback to the second Mrs. Rossi, it's another new lady in Rossi's (Joe Mantegna) life that will have fans talking. As seen in the exclusive sneak peek below, Joy (Amber Stevens), an aggressive reporter, comes by the BAU and makes Rossi's mouth hit the floor when she tells him she's his daughter.
Is Joy actually Rossi's flesh and blood? That remains...

CRIMINAL MINDS Season 10 - "What We Show Is Not Fantasy" - Interview by Smashing Interviews Magazine
Chicago native Joe Mantegna is best known for his current role in the CBS series Criminal Minds as David Rossi, Supervisory Special Agent of the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, and for film roles in Three Amigos, The Godfather Part III, Forget Paris and Up Close & Personal.
Mantegna's numerous other film appearances include Elvis, Big Shots in America, The Money Pit, Homicide, Searching for Bobby Fischer, State of Emergency, Above Suspicion, Underworld, The Simpsons Movie, Hank and Mike, Witless Protection, Cars 2 and Compulsion.
“We portray a real organization. We are the Behavioral Analysis Unit of the FBI. This is not some pretend, made-up kind of program. In other words, what we show, what we depict, is not fantasy. We don't glorify it, and we don't show things any more intense or gruesome just for the sake of doing it or than what it would really be. Yet on the other hand, we don't shy away from it.”
Television appearances are: Bosom Buddies, Archie Bunker's Place, Simon & Simon, The Twilight Zone, Saturday Night Live (host), The Simpsons (Fat Tony, voice), Frasier, The Last Don (miniseries), Rugrats, The Sopranos and First Monday.
The actor has been nominated for Emmys in three miniseries: The Last Don (1997), The Rat Pack (1999) and The Starter Wife (2007). He starred in the CBS family drama Joan of Arcadia with Mary Steenburgen and Amber Tamblyn from 2003 to 2005.
The tenth season of Criminal Minds will premiere on October 1, 2014, at 9:00 p.m. eastern.
Melissa Parker (Smashing Interviews Magazine): Joe, how does it feel to have such a successful run on television?
Joe Mantegna: Well, it's great. It's what I had hoped for. It happened at a time in my career when I was looking to get a little more stable. I'd been traveling all over the world, but as I got older and my children got older, it was attractive for me...

CRIMINAL MINDS Season 9 - R.I.P. Meshach Taylor (Sgt. Harrison Scott in the Show)
 |
| Sgt. Harrison Scott |
 |
| Meshach Taylor |
One of Criminal Minds very own must bid farewell to a dear friend. While many of you already have heard the news, we, the Knights and Ladies of the Criminal Minds Round Table blog, wanted to express our condolences to Joe Mantegna and the family of Meshach Taylor, on Meshach's passing after a long fought battle with cancer. Our hearts and prayers go out to all.
Through Joe and their off screen friendship, Meshach was brought on board Criminal Minds to portray Rossi's friend and former Marine Sgt. Harrison Scott. Meshach gave us a powerful portrayal of the often times sad conditions that our returning veterans experience; especially those from the Vietnam Era. His performance was inspiring as well as heartfelt, the friendship between Joe and Meshach clearly visible in each scene they shared. We are lucky too, that we got to have some closure for Sgt. Scott in the Season 9 episode "The Road Home", which turned out to be Meshach last onscreen job. Again Joe, and Meshach allowed their long time off screen friendship to bind the characters together even more.
The sky will shine a bit brighter from now on with Meshach’s Star having joined so many others who have come before him. Rest in Peace.
NOTE: The comment section is open for all of you who wish to add your words of condolence to family and friends. Understandably, any comment about any other topic will be deleted immediately.

CRIMINAL MINDS Season 9 - Lifetime Achievement Honoree: Joe Mantegna - Interview
By Jenelle Riley
At the age of 66, actor Joe Mantegna shows no signs of slowing down. So though he is being honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce on March 28, he admits to wondering where the time went. “These kinds of things always get your attention,” Mantegna says with a laugh. “When I signed up for Medicare, it was like, 'Oh my goodness, how did I get here?' Sometimes those years do pass on by and the next thing you know you blink and I've realized I've been in this business for 40-plus years.”
