A working actor since the late 1980s, Kirk Baltz is perhaps most famous for playing the part of Marvin Nash, the tortured police officer in Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs (1992). To prepare for the role, Baltz asked co-star Michael Madsen to drive him around in the trunk of Madsen's car. Baltz has also appeared in films like Dances with Wolves (1990), Natural Born Killers (1994), Face/Off (1997), and Bulworth (1998). He has also been a familiar face on television, with roles on TV shows like NYPD Blue (1993) and 24 (2001).
