Donal Logue stars in "Copper" on BBC America as Brendan Donovan, a General who has recently returned from the battlefields of the Civil War to his station in Five Points. The political boss of the Sixth Ward is reasserting himself as one of the most influential and powerful men in the city's political machine.

Logue also recently starred in FX's "Terriers," as Hank Dolworth, and the feature films "Shark Night 3D" and "Charlie St. Cloud," opposite Zac Efron. Previously, Logue starred as the brash New Yorker Captain Kevin Tidwell in NBC's drama "Life."

Donal Logue's versatility and talent makes him one of the most respected actors today. Born in Ottawa, Canada, he moved all over the United States, from the Boston area as an infant to various towns on the Mexican border. He returned to Boston to attend Harvard University, where he majored in intellectual history and eventually discovered his love for the performing arts. While in college, he appeared in over 30 plays, worked for two summers in the American Repertory Theatre's Harvard/Radcliffe Summer Stock Company, and spent a short time doing theater in England.

After graduating, Logue joined the Cornerstone Theatre Company that developed community theater in rural parts of the United States. From then on, he dedicated himself to pursuing his passion for acting.

In 2000, Logue starred in "The Tao of Steve," the story of a larger-than-life, philosophizing Lothario, which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival, and won him a Special Jury Prize for Outstanding Performance. Other film credits include "Sneakers," "Gettysburg," "Little Women," "Jerry Maguire," "Blade," "Runaway Bride," "Reindeer Games," "The Million Dollar Hotel," "The Patriot," "Comic Book Villians," "Confidence," "Just Like Heaven" and "The Groomsmen."

Logue was seen in "Zodiac," the feature film directed by David Fincher, based on the Robert Graysmith books about the notorious Zodiac serial killer, as well as Mark Steven Johnson's "Ghost Rider" with Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes, "The Ex," with Zach Braff and Amanda Peet, and "Purple Violets," with Selma Blair (NBC's "Kath & Kim"), Debra Messing, Patrick Wilson and Ed Burns (who also directed). Logue also appeared in "Max Payne" with Mark Wahlberg and "The Lodger" with Alfred Molina and Hope Davis.



In addition, Logue made his directorial debut with the independent film "Tennis Anyone?," which appeared at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival. He wrote and starred in the film opposite Jason Isaacs and Paul Rudd. Logue next directed the Irish/Canadian production "Paddyville."

 Logue's previous notable television credits include "The Knights of Prosperity," "Grounded for Life" and NBC's "ER."

Logue lives in Los Angeles and has two children.
