Edward Burns Jr. (born January 29, 1968) is an American actor, producer, writer, and director.
Burns was born in Woodside, Queens, New York, as the second of three children of Irish Catholic immigrants: he has a sister, Mary, and a brother, Brian. He was raised on Long Island, where he briefly attended a Catholic Chaminade High School before transferring to a public high school in Hewlett Bay Park, George W. Hewlett High School. His brother Brian followed suit. His father was a policeman, and his mother was a federal employee; both are now retired.
Burns got his start in the film industry while working as a "go-fer" at Entertainment Tonight. While there, he financed, produced, and directed his first film, The Brothers McMullen, in his spare time. Once he completed the film, he got a copy to Robert Redford during an appearance he made at ET.
