TRIVIA:

Is a stage actor who makes occasional films.
On _"Lost" (2004)_ (qv), he played Ben Linus, the son of Roger Linus, played by 'Jon Gries' (qv), who is actually 3 years the junior of Emerson. The age difference is explicable because Roger is first seen in flashbacks to Ben's birth and childhood. Ben's mother was played by 'Carrie Preston (I)' (qv), who in addition to being (like Gries) about the same age as Emerson, is also his real-life wife.
Graduate of Drake University, where he earned a degree in Theater Arts.
Emerson graduated from South Tama County High School in Tama, Iowa.
In 1995, he graduated from the prestigious Professional Actor Training M. F. A. program run jointly by the Alabama Shakespeare Festival and The University of Alabama Department of Theater and Dance.
Worked as a freelance illustrator for publications like The Boston Globe and The New York Times.
