- Brian O'Halloran was born on December 20, 1969 in New York City, New York, USA. He is an actor and producer, known for Clerks (1994), Mallrats (1995) and Clerks II (2006).
- He is a first-generation American; both his parents emigrated from Ireland.
- His father was an automotive engineer, and Brian wanted to follow in his father's footsteps. However, when his father passed away when Brian was 15, he no longer wanted to be an automotive engineer, and discovered acting.
- Since _Clerks (1994)_, Brian O'Halloran has primarily been a stage actor, working with the Boomerang Theatre Company, the New Jersey Repertory Company and the Tri-State Actors Theatre, among others.
- In all movies he has appeared in that were directed by Kevin Smith, his character's last name has been Hicks.
- Brian was active in his high school theater club, and continued on through college.
- On doing live shows at the theater: "Oh, yeah. It's the best training you can do, as an actor. To be in front of a live audience. There's no stop, wait, oh geez, what was that line again? It just sharpens your reflexes. It sharpens your interaction. And it definitely sharpens your memory because you have to know an entire show from beginning to end."
- I love the fans. They're the reason why these movies keep getting made. The only thing that bothers me about chatting with fans is the constant anal rape jokes because of this movie Vulgar I did. Other than that we're cool.
