Philip J. Martin
- Actor
Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Philip J. Martin grew up in the small town
of Hanover, Maryland. At the age of 10, his passion for performing was
born as he was cast in the role of Flute in Shakespeare's A Mid-Summer
Night's Dream. It was then Philip realized that he was born to perform.
His undying determination landed him in Los Angeles where he found
himself on the set of everything from "24" to "Seabiscuit", from
"C.S.I. Miami" to "Intolerable Cruelty". While on the set of
"Carnival", he received his S.A.G. eligibility. Growing up watching
movies like "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "Romancing the Stone", "Star
Wars", "The Terminator", and "Diehard", Philip realized that roles in
action/adventure movies were what he craved. Philip was cast as the
insane mercenary Zayne in the short "Trouble Everyday", which was
filmed in Lone Pine, CA, and Los Angeles, and written, directed, and
edited by Greg Krupka. He also had the opportunity to portray Indiana
Jones in the trailer, "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis".
Harrison Ford has always been one of Philip's most significant
inspirations.
