Born in Syracuse, New York, in 1972, Rory Cochrane has built a decades-long career as one of the recognizable faces of American film and television. Cochrane, who stepped into acting at a young age, managed to attract attention with his unique, calm and introverted interpretation. Appearing in cinema projects in the early stages of his career, Cochrane reached his biggest audience through the world of television. His character Tim Speedle in CBS's long-running series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation introduced him to a wide audience. He continued the same character in CSI: Miami, becoming an integral part of this iconic world of forensics. Speedle left a permanent mark on the audience with his structure that carries a fragile inner world behind its tough appearance. In addition to his success in television, Cochrane has also done strong work in cinema. 2012's Operation: Argo was one of the most important stops in his career. Playing the role of Lee Schatz in this thriller about the Iran hostage crisis, directed by Ben Affleck, Cochrane was part of a strong ensemble performance that masterfully reflected the spirit of the period. The film won the Oscar for Best Picture that year. Appearing on the screen as Carter Baum in Public Enemies, starring Johnny Depp, Cochrane once again proved his naturalness in crime genre productions. In the following years, he did not refrain from trying different characters in projects such as Horns and Eye. Her role as Dillard in the TV series Yellowstone introduced her to a new generation of viewers. With his unpretentious and measured approach to acting, Cochrane stands out as an artist who always melts into the character. His ability to make meaningful even the roles that many actors would be overshadowed makes him one of the valuable characters of American screens.
