I have been a working actor in LA, for over 20 years. I enjoy the slow progression of writing my own projects much more than auditioning for OFFICER #3. I love the challenge of producing and acting in self made projects. But there is nothing I enjoy more than coaching my sons in little league baseball. I pride myself on being the happy coach, who's teams are always average. Also, raising a daughter is proving to be the most joyous thing my life will offer me.
Unique traits: Have special qualities that include; being able to endure the job of stay-at-home-father. Terrible hours and the pay is even worse.

J. Edgar
(
Film
by Clint Eastwood (Biography, Crime and Drama)
Actor Biopic of J. Edgar Hoover told by Hoover as he recalls his career for a biography. Early in his career, Hoover fixated on Communists, anarchists and any other revolutionary taking action against the U.S. government. He slowly builds the agency's reputation, becoming the sole arbiter of who gets hired and fired. One of his hires is Clyde Tolson who is quickly promoted to Assistant Director and would be Hoover's confidant and companion for the rest of Hoover's life. Hoover's memories have him playing a greater role in the many high profile cases the FBI was involved in - the Lindbergh baby kidnapping, the arrest of bank robbers like John Dillinger - and also show him to be quite adept at manipulating the various politicians he's worked with over his career, thanks in large part to his secret files.

Called in by local police departments to assist in solving crimes of a serial and/or extremely violent nature where the perpetrator is unknown (referred to by the Unit as the unknown subject or unsub for short), the BAU uses the controversial scientific art of profiling to track and apprehend the unsub. Profiling entails coming up with basic characteristics of the unsub and the victims (referred to as the victimology), using evidence from the case and matching that information to historic precedents and psychological analyses as a means to solve the case. Because of the nature of the work conducted by the BAU - the work being time consuming and psychologically demanding - its members are fiercely loyal to the Unit and to its other members. Also because of the work's overall demanding nature, not many members of the BAU have been able to maintain a happy or stable family life. Written by Huggo
