Mark Rowe was born in Charlotte, North Carolina and grew up in Knoxville, Tennessee. He studied Theatre and Graphic Design at the University of Tennessee and spent a few years after graduation performing in regional theatre, before moving to NYC. He studied at the Ensemble Studio Theatre and performed in and around the city. He took a break from the business while exploring the world of Entertainment Marketing and Design, which brought him to Los Angeles. He later returned to acting when he was asked by a producer friend to attend a commercial callback. He booked what turned out to be a Budweiser Super Bowl commercial which brought him back into the business. Soon after, he landed his first recurring Co-Star role opposite Liev Schreiber on Ray Donovan.
