Biographie
Martin Thompson is an award-winning American film, television, and stage actor based in Los Angeles. He began his career in New York, studying at HB Studio with the legendary Uta Hagen, then working on daytime television and appearing on the New York stage.

On the big screen, he has worked alongside Kevin Costner in The New Daughter (2009), Paul Rudd in Wanderlust (2012), Colin Firth in Main Street (2010) (the final screenplay by Horton Foote), and with Dean Jones and Hayley Mills in the Mandie and the Secret Tunnel (2009) and Mandie and the Cherokee Treasure (2010) franchise.

(2012), Uncle Buck (2016), and opposite Jane Seymour in Hallmark's Lake Effects (2012).
Thompson was born in Virginia, but only lived there a short time before the family moved again to California. His father was in the Navy, so the family was constantly shuttling back and forth from one coast to the other. He spent a good part of his formative years in constant motion, living in Virginia, California, Florida, and North Carolina (where he received his BFA in Theatre from East Carolina University), before finally heading to New York to begin his career as an actor. His mother was a Peabody trained lyric soprano, who came from a family of singers and musicians. His brother Dan is a film producer. And, his brother Timothy Thompson is a BMI Award winning composer. He has two children: a son, Steven and a daughter, Kathleen.
