Biography

Tim Abell is an actor whose path to the screen ran through the US Army, where he served as a Ranger with the 75th Ranger Regiment before leaving to attend college, and through an Arthur Murray dance studio, where teaching classes led him to the theater. From Maryland and Virginia, he moved to Los Angeles and studied with Jeff Corey before a recommendation from April Webster helped him land the part of Benny Ray Riddle, a onetime Marine scout and sniper, in the syndicated series Soldier of Fortune (1997), which ran for two seasons. Military-flavored films followed, among them The Base (1999), opposite Mark Dacascos, The Substitute: Failure Is Not an Option (2001), and Instinct to Kill (2001), plus the CBS historical drama Murder, She Wrote: The Last Free Man (2001). He also co-produced and starred in Soldier of God (2005) and was associate producer on Miracle at Sage Creek (2005).
