Cast · Known for Route 187, Tyler Perry's The Haves and the Have Nots

Clark Moore is an American actor, born in the border city of Laredo, Texas. The son of a store owner/rancher, he invested a large portion of his energy outside. As a result of his affection for the outdoors, he was out hunting, fishing, climbing and enjoying nature. He attended high school in Laredo. The exacting standards of the school didn't agree with him, which meant he found himself in trouble more often than he wanted. When it came to acting, very early on Clark knew that’s what he wanted and High school is where he had some of his first experiences on stage. It was these experiences that would solidify his passion for acting. He realized that his home town wasn't going to offer him the life and opportunities that would fulfill him and knew he couldn't stay. College took him to the University of Texas at Austin, which had a legitimate film program, nestled in a bustling city, and a thriving small film market. Early in his career in Los Angeles, Clark struggled to make ends meet with his acting, getting cast in commercials from time to time while holding down jobs in order to pay bills. Despite constant difficulties, his grit and tenacity only grew as rejection and failure piled up. It became par for the course and through work and perseverance slowly came co-star role after co-star role. These were on network shows such as Masters of Sex and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. As a few years went by his resume grew, and he was able to catch the eye of directors and casting directors which led him to booking a recurring role on the show The Last Ship. That same year his luck changed and he was chosen out of thousands of actors which were being cast out of New York, Miami, Atlanta, London and Los Angeles to play the lead in a 10 minute segment promo for Mini Cooper directed by Academy Award winning director Joachim Bach in a film called This Day Forward. This fortunate event was a catalyst that helped move him into becoming a working actor. Soon after he played the lead in Aaron Manky's Amazon Prime show Lore in The Beast Within. Clark has gone on to play leading roles in several feature films. His career and new opportunities allow him to try areas that stretch him as an actor and pursue future goals such as producing and directing.
