After 34 years as a working actor, Mark feels blessed to continue in the ever changing culture of media arts. As an Air Force brat, Mark was raised in northern California before moving to Los Angeles at 19 years of age. Early on, Mark started out as a stuntman before being lured into the less dangerous and very lucrative modeling arena.. Acting came as a natural evolution. Since then, Mark has turned an almost accidental transition into theatrical production into a wonderful 34 year career.
The wonderful opportunity to work again with director Ric Roman Waugh as a Lt. Roberts in the compelling film Shot Caller, that was filmed in New Mexico a second home for him was truly amazing. Some other notable roles include: The Last Stand (2013), Paul (2011), North Country (2005), Love Ranch (2010), Breaking Bad (2010), Castle (2015), Criminal Minds (2014), Dig (2014), Messengers (2015), Drop Dead Diva (2013), and Necessary Roughness (2013).
Mark has appeared in over 340 commercials and has recently been turning up in films at many prominent festivals. Hellbent (2016), Bottom of the World (2015), Big Sky (2015), Kepler’s Dream (2015), and The Condemned 2 (2015).
Mark is especially proud of a film that debuted at the Sundance Film Festival: Drunk Town’s Finest (2014). After Sundance, the film screened at 36 festivals worldwide. Life in Color (2015) premiered at the SXSW this year, and is making the rounds at many more festivals. Mark is particularly proud of his involvement in director Ric Roman Waugh’s Felon (2008) that was a precursor for the film Shot Caller..
