With over 40 films and numerous television appearances to his credit, John Carroll Lynch has proven his versatility as an actor. His first nationwide acclaim came in 1996 for his role in Fargo as Marge Gunderson’s simple husband Norm. Since then, John has chosen to play very interesting and diverse roles in such movies as Zodiac, Gran Torino, Shutter Island, and Paul as well as in television shows like The Drew Carey Show and Carnivale. John can currently be seen in TV’s Body of Proof, and his upcoming movie Crazy Stupid Love is scheduled for release in July.

Skilled in both drama and comedy, John has worked with such legendary film directors as Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, David Fincher, Albert Brooks, John Woo and the Coen brothers.

John also boasts considerable live theatre experience. He graduated in the mid-80s with a B.F.A. in theatre from the The Catholic University of America / Hartke Theatre Acting program and then  continued to work in theatre around the country, but concentrated mostly on his work at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, acting in many plays from Shakespeare to Shaw to Chekhov.

Besides being a busy, much-in-demand actor, John finds time for volunteer work with worthy causes like Habitat for Humanity.
