BIOGRAPHY: A fight director as well as an actor, Mark has worked on Broadway, Off-Broadway, and at regional theaters across the country. He holds an MFA from the University of Washington, as well as a BA from Penn State University (in English and History), and is a certified member of the Society of American Fight Directors. He used to work for Greenpeace; he also worked briefly as a jazz pianist at a bar in Vienna, Austria, and spent one summer working on the Cape Cod & Hyannis Railroad. Other odd jobs held during & after college include English teacher, construction worker, and art/rare book dealer.
Mark is adopted, and several years ago he searched for & found his birth-mother; today he enjoys a wonderful relationship with both his adoptive and biological families--in fact, his full, legal last name is "Deklin-Schwotzer" (which he briefly used professionally, until it proved too much of a mouthful for most people to spell & pronounce). He currently lives in Los Angeles, and part-time in New York, with his wife, Jamie, and their dogs, Zoe & Oscar.
TRIVIA:
- He has broken every finger on his right hand at least once - and the thumb and pinkie twice - but has never suffered any other broken bones.
- He loves to sing and play guitar, and formed his first rock band, "Rampage," in seventh grade. He went on to become a founding member of two other bands, "Paradox" and "Big Wednesday" (in high school and college, respectively), before deciding that his true calling was not in the music industry.
- He is a jazz aficionado and an avid reader.
- He played rugby (wing forward) as an undergraduate at Penn State.
- His favorite outdoor activities are in-line skating, rock climbing, and horseback riding.
- He used to work for Greenpeace; he also worked briefly as a jazz pianist at a bar in Vienna, Austria, and spent a summer working on the Cape Cod & Hyannis Railroad. Other odd jobs held during & after college include English teacher, construction worker, and art/rare book dealer.
- He once turned down a lucrative "Marlboro Man" billboard campaign because it didn't sit right with him - even though he was a smoker at the time.
