Michael Lorenzo Urie (born August 8, 1980) is an actor, producer and director. He is best known for playing Marc St. James on the ABC dramedy series Ugly Betty.
Urie went to high school in Plano, Texas at Plano Senior High School. In 1998, he won Dramatic Interpretation with his piece Confessions of a Nightingale at the National Forensic League National Tournament in St. Louis, Missouri.[1] Urie graduated from the Juilliard School, class of 2003.
In a December 2006 issue of dot glbt news magazine, it was reported that Urie was openly gay.[2] While still a student at Juilliard, Urie performed in the world premiere of Love and Happiness (2001) at the Consolati Performing Arts Center, starring him as a sixteen-year-old, trying to get rid of his mother's boyfriend.[3] In addition to this, he appeared in student productions of Sylvia (1998) and Locked Away (1999) at Quad C Theatre.
Urie played the central character, in the stage play WTC View as well as the film adaptation. He is currently finishing a short documentary film, Two Down that he has made on the subject of High School Speech and Debate Tournaments, for Frontal Lobe Productions.
He is on the board of Plum Productions, for whom he also serves as casting director. With the same company he has produced and appeared in Prachtoberfest and lowbrow (and a little bit tacky). As a freelance producer, he has worked on Like The Mountains and The Fantasticks (Four Players Theatre). He also directed the latter.
When Urie landed the role of Marc in Ugly Betty, his character was supposed to be a recurring regular and Urie was billed as guest starring in the credits, which was due to contractual disputes. After they were resolved, Urie was made a full time regular. [4]
