'''Baz Black''' is an Irish actor, model and filmmaker.
A native of Drogheda, Louth, he got his start as a commercial model, becoming the face of Scruffs Workwear. His distinctive collection of body tattoos quickly led to success as an alternative model. As you can probably expect, he's also a tattoo and body modification artist. He studied acting at Dublin's famed Bow Street Academy.
Acting wise, he is often cast to be an intimidating villain, [[TattooedCrook for some reason]], but as a glance at his own films will demonstrate, he has the range to be significantly more than that. He is best known for playing Ged Delaney in the RTE series ''Kin'', and has also appeared in the likes of ''Series/DublinMurders'' and ''Series/IntoTheBadlands''.
He writes and directs his own films too, usually to give himself the chance to play against type, and has won many awards for them. His first feature film, in which he also plays the lead, is 2022's ''Dublin Crust''.
He's also the author of the novel ''[[https://mybook.to/InkPrincess Ink Princess]]''.
