Richard Jenkins was born in DeKalb, Illinois,USA. He has built up an impressive list of credits since he began working as an actor in 1980. Yet with all his credits, he has remained strictly in supporting roles.
After his first feature film, the sci-fi drama, The Falls, Jenkins looked for work in a number of TV movies. In 1985 he returned to features, landing small roles in various films such as Silverodo, Witches of Eastwick and Little Nikita.
From 1985 to 1994, Jenkins found television more profitable, and spent most of his time working in mini series and television movies. It was in this arena that he finally found his starring roles. They included Into Thin Air: Death on Everest, And the Band Played On and The Boys Next Door.
In the last few years, he has landed supporting roles in various large budget films such as Flirting with Disaster (for which he was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award), Absolute Power, There's Something About Mary, The Mod Squad, Snow Falling on Cedars, Random Hearts, Me Myself and Irene and The Kid. He has frequently appeared in Six Feet Under playing Nathaniel Fisher, Sr.
Aside from acting, Jenkins spent four years as the artistic director of the Trinity Repertory Company in Providence, RI.
