EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Emmy-winning actor Timothy Busfield will share his skills with students at Michigan State University.

Prabu David, the dean of the College of Communication Arts and Sciences, says Busfield is making a one-year commitment. It's a homecoming: The 58-year-old lived in East Lansing as a child.

Busfield has had many roles in movies and television, including "Thirtysomething," ''Field of Dreams" and "The West Wing." He's also worked as a director.

Busfield lives in Michigan with wife Melissa Gilbert.
