Career[edit]

Pine began his professional acting career Off-Broadway, then in 1968 appeared as Fop in Cyrano de Bergerac at the Vivian Beaumont Theater.[1] A founding member of the avant-garde theater company the Manhattan Project, he appeared in its 1968 production of Alice in Wonderland, directed by Andre Gregory.[2]

In 1978, he made his film debut in James Ivory's Hullabaloo Over Georgie and Bonnie's Pictures, which was made for television but later released theatrically.[citation needed] Since then, he has performed in Louis Malle's Vanya on 42nd Street[3] and Woody Allen's Celebrity, Small Time Crooks,[4] and Melinda and Melinda,[5] among other films. Pine appears in the book Are You Dave Gorman? as the first actor the writer encounters to have played a fictional Dave Gorman (in The Ice Storm).[citation needed] In both The Royal Tenenbaums and The Door in the Floor, he appears as a Charlie Rose-type interviewer, conducting a one-on-one interview in a dark studio.[6] From 1997 to 1999, Pine portrayed Barry Shire on All My Children.[7]

Personal life[edit]

Pine was born in Tucson, Arizona. He received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of North Texas,[8] and went on to graduate from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in 1968 with a Master of Fine Arts degree.[9] Since 1969, he has been married to composer and sound designer Margaret Pine (née Rachlin). The couple have one son, Jacob (born 1972).
