Bright and articulate actor William Baldwin, a graduate in political science from State University of New York at Binghamton, left the political arena of Capitol Hill to become an actor after his older brother, Alec Baldwin, became a successful movie star. For his first couple of years in Hollywood, William could only find work in advertisements. He got his first break when he was hired to play Robert Chambers in the television movie The Preppie Murder (1989). That year, Baldwin made his big-screen debut playing a small role in Oliver Stone's Born on the Fourth of July. In 1990, Baldwin had his first major role playing opposite Richard Gere in Internal Affairs. He then had a leading role in the dark sci-fi-fantasy Flatliners (1990). A major hit, Baldwin showed the makings of a real star, following up with Backdraft (1991) and the ill-received Sliver (1993). But though he has demonstrated considerable talent and an appealing boyish sexuality, the major stardom enjoyed by Alec Baldwin has thus far eluded him, though he continues to work steadily in films, such as Curdled (1997). Baldwin's other brothers, Daniel and Stephen, are also actors.

QUOTES FROM William Baldwin CHARACTERS

Max Kilpatric says: Who's ever after you are real pros.

Kate McQuean says: I guess I should be proud, it would be embarrassing to be killed by an amateur.

Stephen McCaffrey says: [Steven enters after having saved a child from the fire] Man, that was pretty crazy, huh?

Brian McCaffrey says: I waited. I would've waited.

Stephen McCaffrey says: Come on, don't worry about it.

Brian McCaffrey says: But you did it man. You did it all the way. You were really a hero.

Stephen McCaffrey says: Brian... its not about being a hero. I went in because there was a kid up there. I do what I do because that's my way. And it was Dad's way. Maybe it's not everybody's way.

Batman says: There is a difference between you and me. We both stared into the abyss. But when it stared back... you blinked.

Batman says: [to Owlman] There is a difference between you and me. We both looked into the abyss, but when it looked back as us, you blinked.
