Alias:
Mark Attebery

Birthplace:
Santa Rosa, California, USA

Mark Atteberry was born and raised in Santa Rosa, California where he worked on the family dairy before moving to LA to become an award-winning actor, musician and photographer. He began his endeavors in the Entertainment Industry as a studio musician, playing trombone, tuba and keyboards. As such, he played in countless pit orchestras which is where the acting bug first bit.  When he made the transition to acting, Mark studied with many of the top acting teachers including Roy London, Ivana Chubbuck, Larry Moss, Howard Fine and Vladimir Ilyin of the Moscow Art Theatre. Mark's film work ranges from blockbuster hits like David Fincher's "Gone Girl" and Ang Lee's "The Hulk" to notable indies like the "The Future," "Butterfly Circus" and "Stained," (for which he received his first Best Actor nomination). Mark's television work includes hit series like "The Newsroom," "Bones," "Grey's Anatomy," "Criminal Minds," "Luck," "Dexter," "House, M.D." "Rules of Engagement," "The Closer," "The Mentalist," "Justified," "Big Love," "The Shield," "The Young and the Restless," "24," "Nip/Tuck" and more.  As a photographer, Mark is renown for his advertising, documentary and headshot work. His clients have included A&E, Bravo, CAA, ICM, WME, Venice Magazine, Big Lots and many more. When he first began shooting professionally, Mark was chosen as one of the "Best Headshot Photographers in Los Angeles" by BackStage West magazine. And, in 2010 he was honored by the Photography for Social Change Foundation as one of the "World's Top 100 Documentary-Style Photographers."  As a result of his countless hours on both sides of the camera, Mark occasionally speaks and teaches on the subjects of "Image and Type" and "Acting in LA." He has co-written several books on the topic of acting including "The Working Actor's Guide to LA" and "The Stunt Guide." Mark is the founder of the "Be A Working Actor Studios" in Los Angeles.  - IMDb Mini Biography By: Mark Atteberry

The Search Form


About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
