Biography

Marc Alan Solomon is an American actor known for portraying complex and intense figures who are often authority figures and morally corrupt and not liked by other characters and often seen as "bad". In some ways, his characters are usually manipulative, egotistical, and conniving, but they always act in ways they think are "justifiable." The characters are frequently intense, such as a mysterious suspected killer in the woods in the dramatic horror 'Run Rabbit,' a dark and nefarious surgeon in 'Too Close To the Sun,' a mentally disturbed doctor in 'Cramped,' or a retired ex-con boxer with temper and substance abuse issues in 'Heavyweight.'

In recent projects such as 'The Picture,' 'Refrain,' and 'Living in Purpose,' he squares off against antagonists as law enforcement-winning the day by bending the rules when necessary. He also portrays a mob hitman in 'The Birthday Exit,' ordered to eliminate a consigliere who was once his mentor, and ultimately chooses loyalty to an old friend."

Although his story of being bitten by "the bug" is all too familiar, the route is not. After sneaking onto a movie set as a young kid, he always knew that he wanted to do something in the entertainment world. Taking a nontraditional route into the entertainment industry, he became a doctor in the alternative health field, specializing in holistic healing. While in school, he was reintroduced to the entertainment world through friends that ultimately led to Marc making the decision to become an actor. "It just felt like home when I made the decision."

Fortunately being an actor, writer, director, doctor, and entrepreneur keeps him busy, when he has off-time he enjoys working out, scuba diving, the beach, peanut butter whiskey, and watching live baseball.
