Dylan Baker Movies
Born to a pair of lawyers in Syracuse, VA, and raised in nearby Lynchburg,
Dylan Baker attended Georgetown Prep and William and Mary College before earning his B.F.A. at Southern Methodist University, where his passion for acting was ignited with numerous stage roles. Later refining his talents at Yale's School of Drama,
Baker would turn professional with big screen roles in movies like
Planes, Trains and Automobiles,
Delirious (1991), and
Love Potion No. 9 (1992).
The mid-'90s found the increasingly busy actor dividing his time between stage, screen, and television, and
Baker would soon wed actress
Becky Ann Baker (the couple later appeared together in
Woody Allen's
Celebrity [1998]). A successful stage performance of La Bete found
Baker nominated for Tony and Drama Desk Awards, and
Baker and his wife continued to develop a close association with New York's Drama Department theater troupe. Following his remarkable performance in
Happiness,
Baker would appear in films such as
Random Hearts,
The Cell, and
Thirteen Days (all 2000).
As the 2000's unfolded, Baker would remain an active force on screen, appearing in movies like
The Tailor of Panama, and
Along Came a Spider, and on TV shows like 24, Damages, and Hawaii Five-O. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
