Full John Billingsley Biography
John Billingsley (born May 20, 1960 in Media, Pennsylvania) is an American actor, known for a number of memorable TV and film characters, perhaps his most notable being the role of Doctor Phlox on the television series Star Trek: Enterprise.
Billingsley currently resides in Los Angeles, California and remains active in theater. He is married to actress Bonita Friedericy, with whom he has worked on a number of projects.
He made a memorable appearance in an episode of The X-Files, playing a friend of the Lone Gunmen who turns out to be a government spy. He was cast in the role of Professor Miles Ballard in the short-lived television series The Others and then as the eccentric alien Doctor Phlox in the fifth Star Trek series, Star Trek: Enterprise. He played himself in an episode of Roswell that played on the Enterprise set. He also starred in the independent film Breathing Hard (2000) in the same year. In 2002, he was a guest star in an episode of Stargate SG-1, playing a scientist who is also a Trekkie, "worship at the altar of Roddenberry". He also had a sizeable role as Denzel Washington's coroner friend in the 2003 film Out of Time.
He is well known to fans of the series Cold Case for his guest appearance in the show's second season playing serial killer George Marks. His character had the distinction of being the only killer on the show to get away with murder. Billingsley would later reprise the role in the season finale, in which George was finally killed. This is certainly not his only memorable on screen death, having already been whacked on the head with a frying pan in the first season of Six Feet Under to become the "Death of the week" in episode "The New Person".
More recently he appeared in the first season of the series Prison Break as the mysterious Terrence Steadman, brother of the Vice-President, whose death is faked to frame Lincoln Burrows for murder. Soon after he was cast as a regular on the series The Nine. Consequently, this left him unable to continue his role as Steadman and was replaced in the role by Jeff Perry. In 2005, he played the voice of Trask in Ultimate Spider-Man. In November of 2006, John portrayed William Bradford on two episodes of the podcast The Radio Adventures of Dr. Floyd. In May 2007 he appeared on "NCIS" as a blind photographer in the episode, "In The Dark". He will also appear in the seventh season of 24 as a recurring character. On October 8, 2007, he also made a guest appearance on "Journeyman" as the character Alan Platt. He also made a guest appearance in an October 2007 episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. This creates an apparent continuity error, as it has been established that both Cold Case and CSI occur in the same universe. |
