McGill has appeared in more than 100 movies to date, including "Vantage Point," "Runaway Jury," "Matchstick Men" and "Cinderella Man." His appearance as southern attorney Ron Motley in Michael Mann's "The Insider" garnered high praise from critics and audiences alike. Other film work includes "The Legend of Bagger Vance," "My Cousin Vinny," "The Sum of All Fears," "The Last Boy Scout," "Shallow Hal," "Silkwood," "Exit Wounds" and "Legally Blonde 2: Red," "Hot and Blonde."

McGill's list of television credits is equally impressive, as he has starred in some of HBO's most critically acclaimed productions; portraying controversial journalist Peter Arnet in "Live From Baghdad," painting a chilling portrait of LBJ cabinet member George Ball in "Path to War" and accurately recreating legendary Yankees manager Ralph Houk in "61*." He has made memorable guest appearances on "Law and Order," "CSI", "The Practice," "Gideon's Crossing," "Home Improvement," "Star Trek: Voyager," "The Commish," "Quantum Leap" and "Miami Vice," among others. He may be best known for his work on "MacGyver" as Jack Dalton, MacGyver's troublemaking best friend, whom he played for six seasons.

Originally from San Antonio, McGill began his acting career on stage in elementary school. After earning his bachelor's degree in acting from the University of Texas at Austin, he made his professional debut as a member of Rhode Island's Trinity Square Repertory Company. In New York City, he began a long association with the New York Shakespeare Festival (NYSF), appearing in "Hamlet" (produced by the legendary Joseph Papp) and "Henry V," and playing Iago opposite Raul Julia's "Othello," all for the NYSF's Shakespeare in the Park series. He also starred on Broadway in "My One and Only," with Tommy Tune and Twiggy. In 2008, he returned to the stage (after 22 years) with an acclaimed portrayal of Orson Welles in "Orson's Shadow" at the Pasadena Playhouse.

McGill currently lives with his wife outside Los Angeles, where he indulges in his passion for golfing, sailing and playing music whenever possible.
