Enrique Murciano was born in Miami, Florida, on July 9, 1973, but spent
the first few years of his life in Mexico. He attended Tulane
University and Boston Law School, but moved to Los Angeles to pursue
his goal of becoming an actor. He brought with him his love of exotic
cars and motorcycles. On his first audition, 1997, he landed the role
of Alejandro in
Speed 2: Cruise Control (1997). The role only involved one line, but it took
six months of shooting.
His big break came three years later, when a two-day stint on the set
of the Academy Award-winning
Traffic (2000) turned into several weeks work as
the role of DEA agent Ricky, placing him in several pivotal scenes with
Luis GuzmƔn and
Don Cheadle. After the short-lived TV series
Spyder Games (2001), Enrique
landed the role of Sgt. Lorenzo Ruiz in the much-acclaimed
Ridley Scott film
Black Hawk Down (2001). It was during the shooting of that film that he was introduced
to
Jerry Bruckheimer, a meeting that led to his role in
Without a Trace (2002).
