Biography

Known for his quirky characterizations, Bottrell is probably best known for playing the creepy "Lincoln Meyer" on season three of "Boston Legal." Other memorable work include recurring and guest star work on such shows as "The Blacklist," "Rectify," "Law and Order: SVU," "Longmire," "Mad Men," "Justified," "True Blood," "NCIS," "Criminal Minds," "Castle," "iCarly," and "Days of Our Lives." A former off-Broadway actor & playwright, his critically-acclaimed one-man shows consistently play to sold out audiences. Bottrell co-wrote the stage play, "Dearly Departed" as well as the film adaptation entitled "Kingdom Come" starring Whoopi Goldberg, L.L. Cool J., Anthony Anderson and Jada Pinkett-Smith. He is also the author of "Working Actor: Breaking In, Making a Living and Making a Life in the Fabulous Trenches of Show Business" published by Random House (Ten Speed Press) in February 2019.
