Angel on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"
While relatively new to the world of acting, David
Boreanaz has catapulted to stardom with his quiet
intensity as the mysterious and tortured Angel on "Buffy
the Vampire Slayer."
A native of Philadelphia, Boreanaz was exposed to
television at a young age - his father is a veteran weather
forecaster for WPVI in Philadelphia. Since seeing the
inspiring performance of Yul Brynner in "The King and I"
at the young age of seven, Boreanaz had a feeling that
acting would be in his future. After graduating from Ithaca
College, he moved to Los Angeles to try his luck in
Hollywood.
While studying the craft of acting, Borneanaz lived the life
of a starving actor doing such jobs as parking cars,
painting houses and handing out towels at a sports club.
Yet, it was while walking his dog in a Hollywood
neighborhood that a manager spotted his brooding,
intense look and instantly signed him as a client.
His first big break was a guest shot on "Married...With
Children" playing Kelly Bundy's (Christina Applegate)
biker boyfriend. He has also appeared in the television
movie "Men Don't Lie."
On Stage, Boreanaz has performed at the Ensemble
Theatre in "Hatful of Rain," at the Gardner Stage in
"Italian-American Reconciliation" and "Fool for Love,"
and on theatre row in "Cowboy Mouth." His feature film
credits "Aspen Extreme," "Best of the Best 2" and "Eyes
of the World."
Currently, Boreanaz lives in Los Angeles with his dog,
Bertha Blue.
