Early life
David Boreanaz was born on May 16,
1969 in Buffalo, New York where his father, Dave Roberts (né Boreanaz), was
working as a weather forecaster and children's show host for ABC affiliate WKBW-TV,
and his mother, Patti Boreanaz, was a travel agent.[1] He is of Italian descent
on his father's side (the surname Boreanaz is of Northern Italian
origin).[2][3][4] His mother is of half Slovak and half Irish, German, French,
and Swiss descent.[5][6]
When Boreanaz was nine years old,
the family moved to the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area after his father took a
job at WPVI-TV, the ABC affiliate in Philadelphia. Boreanaz attended Rosemont
School of the Holy Child in his early years and then high school at Malvern
Preparatory School in Malvern, Pennsylvania, and went to college at Ithaca
College in Ithaca, New York.[7] After graduating, Boreanaz moved to Hollywood,
California to pursue an acting career.
Career
David Boreanaz's first paid acting
appearance was a 1993 guest spot on the American sitcom, Married... with
Children, as Kelly's two-timing biker boyfriend, who gets pummeled by her
father, Al.[8] He was cast in the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer,
after being suggested for the role to Marti Noxon by one of Boreanaz's
neighbors, after walking his dog past their house.[9] In the cult series, he
played the mysterious Angel, a vampire cursed with a soul as punishment for his
past sins. The show became enormously successful and Boreanaz starred in a
spin-off series, Angel, which gave the character a chance to evolve and
concentrated on Angel's battle for redemption for the sins he committed before
he regained his soul. He appeared on Buffy from 1997 to 1999, at which point he
began starring in Angel, which ran until 2004, with some guest appearances on
Buffy after his departure.
Boreanaz's only starring role in a
major theatrical film was in 2001's slasher horror film, Valentine, alongside
Denise Richards and Katherine Heigl. In 2002, he had a supporting role in a
Lifetime television movie titled I'm with Lucy. In 2003, he appeared in the
music video for singer Dido's hit single "White Flag", and was the voice of Leon
(Squall Leonhart) in the video game Kingdom Hearts, but he did not reprise his
role in the sequel. In 2005, Boreanaz began starring opposite Emily Deschanel on
the current prime time television series, Bones. He also appeared in These
Girls, a Canadian film in which he played a biker; the film received a limited
theatrical release in Canada in March 2006, after premiering at the Toronto Film
Festival and the Vancouver International Film Festival. He has also starred in
the independent films Mr. Fix It and Suffering Man's Charity (released on DVD as
Ghost Writer), as well as the direct-to-DVD sequel The Crow: Wicked Prayer in
which he starred alongside Tara Reid. In 2006, he starred in another DVD
release, The Hard Easy, which also starred Nick Lachey.
In that same year, he also voiced
Hal Jordan in the direct to video DC Comics animated feature Justice League: The
New Frontier. In the season three finale of his TV series Bones, Boreanaz's
character Seeley Booth is seen in his bathtub reading an issue of Green Lantern,
the character he voiced in that feature.
As well as being a producer on
Bones since its third season, Boreanaz also directed a number of episodes,
including "The Bones That Foam," "The Parts in the Sum of the Whole," "The
Bullet in the Brain," and "The Blackout in the Blizzard." It has also since been
reported by Hart Hanson, the creator of Bones, that Boreanaz has directed and
starred in the series' 100th episode airing in the fifth season. [10] BuddyTV
ranked him #13 on its "TV's 100 Sexiest Men of 2010" list[11] and #18 in
2011.[12]
Boreanaz will be starring in
independently made fantasy drama Officer Down.[13]
In the 2011 movie "The Mighty
Macs," Boreanaz plays the role of Ed Rush, NBA referee and husband of Immaculata
basketball coach Cathy Rush, released to theaters on Friday, October 21, 2011.
[14]
Personal life
Family
Boreanaz lives in Los Angeles,
California. He was married to Ingrid Quinn from June 7, 1997 to October 1999. He
has been married to actress and Playmate Jaime Bergman since November 24, 2001.
David and Jaime have a son, Jaden (Jaden Rayne Boreanaz, born on May 1, 2002),
and a daughter, Bella[15] (born Bardot Vita Boreanaz on August 31, 2009,[16] her
name was later changed to Bella Vita Bardot Boreanaz).[17]
Reconstructive surgery
In 2004, Boreanaz underwent
reconstructive surgery on the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee, a
result of a running injury he suffered in high school that was not fully
corrected at that time.[18] His recovery did not prevent Angel production from
continuing, but did limit his mobility and physical activities in several
episodes, including his directorial debut, "Soul Purpose".[19][20]
Marital infidelities
In May, 2010, Boreanaz admitted to
multiple infidelities.[21] It was revealed that Boreanaz had an affair with
Tiger Woods' former mistress Rachel Uchitel.[22][23][24] Uchitel initially
stated that she was not involved with Boreanaz,[25] but later admitted to the
affair.[26][27][28] She denied extorting him over their alleged affair although
her attorney, Gloria Allred, stated Boreanaz had deceived Uchitel.[29]
Sexual harassment lawsuit
In July 2010, an extra on Bones,
Kristina Hagan, sued Boreanaz and 20th Century Fox Television for more than
$25,000. She held that Boreanaz had tried to kiss and fondle her several times
in August 2009, and sued on claims of sexual harassment and intentional
infliction of emotional distress. In March 2011, Allred said the lawsuit was
"resolved" but provided no further details.[30] [31]
