Michael Gary Scott (March 15, 1965) is the Regional Manager of the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. As a native of Scranton, Michael was a child star on the hit kids' show Fundle Bundle, before joining Dunder Mifflin as a salesman in the 1990s and his career quickly took off. After only 2 weeks on the job, Michael was able to bring such a large number of new clients to Dunder Mifflin Scranton, thus kickstarting his long, decorated tenure with the company.

Michael is very proud of his multicultural heritage and is very proud to represent English, Irish, German, Scottish, and Native American ancestries. In his spare time, Michael enjoys writing, directing, and acting his own action movie scripts, as well as watching other movies, especially those starring HIlary Swank. 

"I became a salesman because of people. I love making friends. But then I was promoted to manager at a very young age. And I still try to be a friend first. But, you know... when you're very successful, your co-workers look at you differently." —Michael Scott
