In addition to his starring role on Bones, David Boreanaz recently directed an episode of the series which is scheduled to air in late February. Boreanaz’s film credits include the independent sports drama Our Lady of Victory, opposite Carla Cugino and Ellen Burstyn. Boreanaz plays Ed Rush, whose wife coaches the Immaculata College women’s basketball team, turning a losing team into national champions. In addition to voicing the role of Hal Jordan (aka “The Green Lantern”) for the animated feature Justice League: The New Frontier, Boreanaz starred opposite Anne Heche in Alan Cumming’s independent black comedy Suffering Man’s Charity, which premiered at the South by Southwest Film Festival.
While relatively new to acting when he landed a guest-starring role on the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Boreanaz vaulted to stardom as the mysterious and tortured character Angel on the series. He continued the role in his own series, Angel.
Boreanaz was exposed to the TV business at a young age as the son of a veteran weather forecaster for WPVI in Philadelphia. After graduating from Ithaca College, he moved to Los Angeles to try his luck in Hollywood. He got his first break with a guest spot on Married With Children as the biker boyfriend of Kelly Bundy (Christina Applegate).
On stage, Boreanaz performed in the off-Broadway production of Spalding Gray: Stories to Tell. He has performed at the Ensemble Theatre in Hat Full of Rain, at the Gardner Stage in Italian-American Reconciliation, Fool for Love, and Cowboy Mouth.
Boreanaz is an avid golfer and traveler, and lives in Los Angeles with his family.
