Anthony Dwayne Montgomery (born June 2, 1971 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is an American film and television actor, as well as graphic novelist.

Montgomery is currently playing Andre Maddox on the ABC daytime soap opera General Hospital.

Personal life

Montgomery was born in Indianapolis, Indiana.[1]

Montgomery is the grandson of jazz musician Wes Montgomery. He graduated from Ball State University with a degree in performance theater and drama. Montgomery did stand-up comedy briefly after graduation, before moving to California.[2]

He was married to Adrienne Montgomery in August 2007. They have a son together (born 2010) and Montgomery has a daughter from a previous relationship.[3] His grandfather was jazz musician Wes Montgomery.[4]

He is a frequent guest at Star Trek conventions. Montgomery is a keen martial arts student, and a practitioner of Hapkido. He has also studied Koga Ryu Ninjutsu.

Career

Sometimes credited as "A.T. Montgomery", his first starring role was in the horror-spoof Leprechaun in the Hood (2000) for which he also contributed writing and vocals for several songs. He had a recurring role on the television series Popular before being cast in Star Trek: Enterprise in 2001. In 2004, he returned to the stage in Los Angeles, producing the show Dutchman by LeRoi Jones, as well as returning to stand-up comedy. In the summer of 2005, he returned to Indiana to star in theatrical fundraisers for charity.

Montgomery starred in the film I'm Through with White Girls in 2007.

In January 2009, Montgomery appeared in an episode of the Fox series House. In 2013, he appeared briefly as a dud romantic-interest in the show Baby Daddy (season 2, ep. 1), playing a handsome but boring drycleaner the show's (young) grandmother was interested in. In 2013 he also produced and starred in the independent film Chariot, about seven amnesiac strangers who awake on an airliner mid-flight.

Montgomery has produced one CD of his own music, What You Know About..., featuring four songs about Star Trek themes. In April 2007 Anthony Montgomery signed with the Germany-based AGR Television Records. His (Hip-Hop) debut-album, titled A.T., was released in November 2008.[5]

In 2013, Montgomery created Miles Away, a hoped-to-be media franchise, about a teenager with special needs who battles aliens. A graphic novel was published in June 2013, and nominated for two Glyph Awards.[6]

In 2015, Montgomery joined the cast of the ABC daytime soap General Hospital playing Dr. Andre Maddox.[7]
