Biography

He is the son of Grover Dale and the late Anita Morris, and a godson of Tommy Tune. He is an alumnus of Manhattanville College where he was a goalie for the hockey team until he ripped the muscles in his leg. This break from sports re-ignited his passion for acting. After the drama department at Manhattanville offered all it could he decided to move to NY where he started to train as an actor. He is currently represented by International Creative Management agent Chris Hart.

His most notable works to date are in the 1990 film adaptation of Lord of the Flies (in which he played the part of Simon) and the role of Chase Edmunds in the third season of the Fox TV series 24. He later reprised the role of Chase in the 24 Video Game. He has also appeared in multiple episodes of CSI: Miami, Law and Order: SVU, CSI: NY, The Black Donnellys, and Rescue Me. He has a supporting role in the Oscar-winning movie The Departed alongside Jack Nicholson, Matt Damon, and Leonardo DiCaprio. Dale starred in a TV series pilot titled Ft. Pit. He will be starring as one of the three leads in the big-budget HBO miniseries titled The Pacific, from executive producers Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.
