W. Earl Brown


W. Earl Brown comes from a long line of bootleggers and used-car dealers--the perfect lineage for becoming an actor. After receiving his MFA from DePaul, Earl began working in the Chicago theater scene. Stage roles eventually led to film roles, and Earl moved westward. He now lives in Los Angeles with his wife (who was his high school sweetheart), his daughter and his hound dog. See full bio »

Personal Quote:
