Mark Boone Junior (born Mark Heidrich; March 17, 1955)[2] is an American actor, best known for his roles as Bobby Munson in FX's Sons of Anarchy[3] and in two films by Christopher Nolan, Memento and Batman Begins.[3]

Early life and education

Boone was born Mark Heidrich in Cincinnati, Ohio, to Ginny, a retired teacher, and Bob Heidrich, a former construction consultant. He grew up on Chicago's North Shore and attended the University of Vermont.[1] He moved to New York after college, where he started his career performing stand-up comedy with long-time friend Steve Buscemi. His stage name, Boone, came from a New York City war memorial.[1]

Career

He has appeared in some of Steve Buscemi's directorial work, including Trees Lounge and as "Evil" in Lonesome Jim. He was a regular cast member on Sons of Anarchy, where he played Bobby Munson. In 2010 he played the role of Vincent Dooly's father in The Mother of Invention.

Boone frequently portrays a crooked cop or other authority figure, and has had a prolific career, appearing in over 70 movies, which also include 2 Fast 2 Furious, Get Carter, The General's Daughter, The Thin Red Line, Seven, and Die Hard 2. He has also made guest appearances on TV in Law & Order, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and several other shows.

In a foreshadowing incident he appears in the September 1, 1958 episode of Quantum Leap, Rebel Without A Clue, as a biker named Maddog, much like his Sons of Anarchy character, Bobby "Elvis" Munson.

He is known for appearing in two Christopher Nolan films, Memento, as Burt, the front desk manager at the Discount Inn, and Batman Begins, as Flass, James Gordon's crooked partner.

He had a small role in Armageddon and in Season 6, Episode 5 of Oz. In 1984 he acted in The Way It Is (1985) by Eric Mitchell, which included actors Steve Buscemi and Rockets Redglare.
