Biography

Aaron Douglas is a Canadian actor and writer who is best known for playing Galen Tyrol on the science fiction series Battlestar Galactica. Born in New Westminster, British Columbia, he was 26 when he quit his job, returned to Vancouver and trained at the William Davis Centre for Actors Study at VanArts. He went on to perform with the Okanagan Shakespeare Company, and early small parts came his way after he read dialogue opposite actors at auditions.

In 2013 he was nominated for a Canadian Screen Award for a guest role in Flashpoint. He has also worked as a writer, with graphic novels including 10 Years to Death and Borealis.
