Patrick Heusinger is a 37-year-old actor who spent a decade in New York and the last decade in Hollywood, not becoming a household name. He has an IMDb page full of one-episode guest spots on 30 Rock and Bones. He was on four episodes of Gossip Girl that aired when George W. Bush was president. He’s played a robot in a failed pilot—twice. He’s like hundreds of actors who bounce from TV jobs to indie films to plays like balls on a roulette wheel, hoping something will hit.
