His notable feature film credits include the award-winning Ron Howard film Apollo 13 (1995), where he played a news reporter, and the Wolfgang Petersen film Outbreak (1995) as a Doctor.

In 2015 he appeared in the cameo role of "Admiral Grant (Ben) Satterlee" in the pilot of the web-based series "Star Trek: Renegades" (the pilot episode was developed for television, but was rejected, and subsequently made available on the Internet). In 2007 he portrayed "Captain Gault", a freedom fighter, in the Internet mini series Star Trek: Of Gods and Men, from the same independent production company.
