Andre Braugher stars in "Men of a Certain Age" on TNT as Owen. He also stars in "Salt," opposite Angelina Jolie, as the Secretary of Defense.

Andre Braugher is perhaps best known for his riveting, Emmy-winning portrayal of Detective Frank Pembleton on the NBC series "Homicide: Life on the Street." He won a second Emmy for his performance in the FX miniseries "Thief." His additional Emmy nominations recognized his work in the television series "Gideon's Crossing" and the HBO film "The Tuskegee

Airmen."

Braugher's most recent credits include the A&E miniseries "The Andromeda Strain" and the feature films "The Mist," "Passengers" and "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer."

"Men of a Certain Age" marks Braugher's fourth project for TNT. In 2004, he co-starred with Rob Lowe in the TNT original miniseries "Salem's Lot," based on the Stephen King bestseller. In 1999, he starred in the TNT original movie "Passing Glory." And in 1990, he played legendary baseball player Jackie Robinson in the TNT original movie "The Court-Martial of Jackie Robinson," which told the lesser-known story of Robinson's struggle to overcome segregation in the South after being drafted into the Army during World War II.

Braugher's additional television work includes the CBS series "Hack" and such movies and miniseries as Showtime's "A Soldier's Girl," "Love Songs" and "10,000 Black Men Named George," the latter of which he executive-produced and for which he earned an NAACP Image Award nomination; HBO's "Somebody Has to Shoot the Picture"; and NBC's "Murder in Mississippi." He began his television career as Lt. Theo Kojak's sidekick in TV movies based on the original "Kojak" series.

In addition to Braugher's success on the small screen, audiences have seen him star in a variety of feature film roles, including "Glory," "Primal Fear," Spike Lee's "Get on the Bus," "Poseidon," "City of Angels," "Frequency," "Duets," "A Better Way to Die," "Thick as Thieves" and "All The Rage."

A versatile performer, Braugher has appeared on stage with the New York Shakespeare Festival in "Measure for Measure," "Twelfth Night" and in the title role of "Henry V," the latter earning him an Obie Award. In 2008, he portrayed King Claudius in the Public Theatre's presentation of "Hamlet" in Shakespeare in the Park. His other Public Theatre productions include "The Way of the World" and Shakespeare's "Richard II" and "Coriolanus." He also played Iago in the Folger Shakespeare Festival production of "Othello" and performed the title role in "Macbeth" for the Philadelphia Drama Guild.



Braugher, who was born and raised in Chicago, earned a B.A. from Stanford University and an M.F.A. from Juilliard.
