Mack B. was born in Long Island, New York.Growing up as a kid he had 3 dreams of interest: Acting, Sports, & Music. He knew that his calling in life would be one of these three goals, if not all. Once in High School, he took a heavy interest in theater, speech, and drama in addition to playing sports. A severe ankle injury his junior year in High School while playing sports all but ended any hopes of him going to the next level with athletics, so he quickly turned to music and acting.

Upon leaving the East Coast at 12 years of age along with his mother and twin sister, they headed west to Colorado. He would then split his time between the Rocky Mountains of Denver and the beaches of California eventually relocating permanently to the west coast in the summer of 1999. Once in California, Mack B. began breaking into the business as a performer gaining exposure and building relationships in the industry. This would eventually pay off for he was able to land his first break as a co-star role on "The Shield" with Michael Chiklis, he played the character "Mo". He then landed a role as a gangster in the critically acclaimed film "S.W.A.T.", while a recurring role on the CBS Television series "Dr. Vegas" followed soon after as he starred opposite Rob Lowe as the character Bruce.

He since has been seen on Comedy Centrals "The Chocolate News" opposite David Allen Grier, has worked with Sylvester Stallone (Russian Ice Vodka Campaign), Discovery Channel, "i-Carly" on Nickelodeon and most recently a co-star role on the critically acclaimed television drama "Southland" opposite Regina King. He continues to work hard, stay humble, and reach for the stars because according to him "Yes indeed the future is very bright and we must help build and develop the youth worldwide for they indeed are the future"! In his free time he's also involved with the community and charity work, affiliated with donorschoose.org (this program allows individuals to directly assist the youth in their schools in terms of assisting with funding for the children to obtain school supplies, books, musical instruments, and electronics for the classroom)...He also frequents the Boyle Heights Youth Technology Center and does several Toy and Turkey Drives at the center to assist families and children in need who may not have the resources.
