Michael McGlone was born in White Plains, NY, the third born child of Joe and Jean McGlone. Raised in various towns throughout the American northeast, it was in 1991, when the family was living in Fairfield, CT that McGlone departed for New York City and Tisch School of the Arts at NYU, wherefrom, a year later, in his words he "self-graduated." Not long after, through an ad in the paper Backstage, he landed the role that would mark the beginning of his career as an actor. That role was the beloved Patrick McMullen, the excessively moral and excessively conflicted youngest brother in the Sundance Festival Grand Jury Prize Winning film The Brothers McMullen. With the middle brother and director of that film, Edward Burns, McGlone would go on to star in She's the One and later, with Philip Noyce, The Bone Collector, with Bruno Barreto, One Tough Cop and in Bob Giraldi's classic sleeper independent film Dinner Rush. As prolific in television, McGlone's numerous recurring roles include the fan favorite Detective Szymanski on Person of Interest, Bobby McKeen in Starz' dramatic series Crash, and SpikeTV's The Kill Point. In a return to the screen with Eddie Burns you can also see him in their third feature film together, The Fitzgerald Family Christmas, in which McGlone plays the fiery Quinn Fitzgerald...

Also a writer, director, producer, musician and performer McGlone's life is often full with work on simultaneous projects. Whether his award winning Kenny The Gun, his various poetry and novels, stand-up comedy or Music, McGlone has always pursued the most abundant expression of his multi-talents.

As to Michael's Music, his latest EP, The Center, is now available along with his three full length records, HERO, To Be Down and SPEED, in addition to his various singles, The Other Side, Guinivere, Let the Light In, Everywhere I Go (You Go), Rise Up, The Hammer and Thank you again.... His fourth album, Two Dancers, is on deck...an album which will include, in McGlone's words, "The finest productions of my Music, yet..."

Among the reviews of his Music, one concluded, "The world needs more songs like Hero, and more songwriters like Michael McGlone."

In addition to his writing for both television and film, McGlone is also the author of the novels CAL, "And All the Roses Dying...", Dice, Hourigan's Song and The Soft Drive...as well as several volumes of verse and short stories...

With various projects in development, most recently McGlone can be seen on ABC's The Rookie: Feds, in the role of the hard-nosed Commander Trent Hyde and in the coming weeks look for him on CBS's NCIS: Hawai'i in an episode written by Amy Rutberg, when he joins the exceptional Vanessa Lachey, et al in the role of Dennis Lang...
