Ryan Chappelle

Ryan Chappelle is a fictional character played by Paul Schulze as part of the television series 24. On the show, Chappelle was the Los Angeles Regional Division Director of the fictional government Counter Terrorist Unit agency. He was above George Mason and Alberta Green in the chain of command. As a regional representative, he directly answered to the President of the United States. (This is disputed as in Season 1 he is given a direct order from someone at the Pentagon which he had to follow.)
