BIOGRAPHY

Clark Moore is an American actor who has become known in TV shows, movies, and video games over the past 9 years. Born in Laredo, Texas, he was the middle child of 4 boys in a family that valued discipline and a strong work ethic. His father, a rancher and outdoor sporting goods store owner, instilled in him the importance of hard work and pursuing business ventures from a young age. Despite growing up in a small town, Moore's interest in movies and the possibilities that world could open for him.


As a child, Moore was known for his funny antics and lively personality. He enjoyed shooting home movies with family and friends, and was particularly fond of Saturday Night Live and the crazy cast of characters the show came up with during the late 80's and early 90's. As he grew older, Clark became more interested in acting and the fascination it brought him, but it was not until his thirties that things started to align a bit different for him.


In high school, experiences out in the world held Clark’s attention better than academics, but he knew there was a place for him in the acting world. So, he racked up his first acting credits in high school productions and solidified his interest in the arts. 

 

While Laredo had much to offer for a rancher’s son, it’s not exactly known for its acting scene. So, Clark expanded his horizons with a film degree at The University of Texas at Austin. He took what he could from UT’s film program, Austin’s bustling city culture, and the area’s thriving small film market, but ultimately set his sights on Los Angeles

Early in his LA career, Clark struggled to make ends meet with acting, getting cast in the occasional commercial while holding down jobs in order to pay bills. Despite what felt like constant setbacks, his grit and tenacity only grew as rejections and failures piled up. All those “no’s” paid off, and Clark began to receive co-star roles on network shows like Masters of Sex and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. 


With a growing resume under his belt, Clark started to catch the eye of directors and casting directors, which led to a recurring role on the show The Last Ship. That same year, he was chosen from thousands of actors to play the lead in a 10-minute segment promo for Mini Cooper, directed by Academy Award-winning director Joachim Bach in a film called This Day Forward. 

 

Consistency and persistence has been moving Clark’s career forward, enabling him to play the lead in Aaron Manky’s Amazon Prime show called Lore in the Beast Within. Since then, Clark has played a Deputy Marshall in Stumptown and District Attorney Stanny Sanders in the ABC mini-series Women of the Movement, Executive Produced by Will Smith and Jay-Z. He’s been in four films in the last year alone, playing the lead role in two—both due out before the end of 2021. 

 

Clark looks forward to future roles that allow him to stretch as an actor and pursue other long-term goals, such as producing and directing.
