"A cryptic guy with a message" is how Boreanaz describes his character,
Angel in the show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Boreanaz graduated
from Ithaca College in New York and announced he wanted to pursue a career
in acting. His father, a weather forecaster in Philadelphia got in the car
with him and the two of them spent a week driving to Los Angeles. His
sister Beth is a production coordinator for the Rosie O'Donnell Show, and
his sister Bo is a costume designer whose work can be seen in Escape
from L.A. and Barton Fink, among others. Prior to Buffy,
Boreanaz guest starred on Married...With Children and Men Don't
Lie, as well as has appeared in several films, including Best of
the Best II and Aspen Extreme. As with all actors, he's also
been seen parking cars at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, handing out towels
at a gym, and doing commercials from time to time. "It's definitely the
biggest thing I've done so far," says Boreanaz. The agency resume lists
some of Boreanaz's special skills as dialects (NY, London, German,
Italian), basketball, baseball, football, bungee jumping, tennis, skiing,
and harmonica. The character of Angel has become so pupular with fans
that he'll be getting his own series, titled Angel. This BTVS
spin-off will premiere in Fall, 1999.
