Marshall Allman, born on April 5th, 1984, in Austin, Texas, initially discovered his latent talent for acting at the tender age of seventeen, when he was entrusted with a pivotal role in a summer production of Clive Barker's "The History of the Devil". This revelatory experience prompted him to abandon his earlier pursuits in art and athletics, and instead, he decided to dedicate himself to the craft of acting.
Upon relocating to Hollywood just weeks after graduating from Austin High School, Marshall immersed himself in a more comprehensive study of acting, which ultimately led him to secure early roles in commercials and guest television spots on renowned shows such as "Without a Trace" (2002) and "The Practice" (1997).
It wasn't long before Marshall landed his first significant film role as "Kevin Kelly" alongside Jonathan Tucker and Ben Foster in the movie "Hostage" (2005). This breakthrough performance marked the beginning of his rise to international recognition.
Since then, Marshall has garnered widespread acclaim for his intense portrayal of "L.J. Burrows" on the global hit television series "Prison Break" (2005). He has also appeared in various independent films, including "Winged Creatures" (2008),alongside Forest Whitaker, and took on the leading role in acclaimed writer-director David Russo's feature-length debut, "The Immaculate Conception of Little Dizzle" (2009).
