at .

Michael E. Rodgers is currently portraying playing Mike's boss, Neal, on As the World Turns. While he's only scheduled to remain on the show for a short period of time, here's a bit of background on the actor:

Rodgers is from Whitburn, a town in the West Lothian region of Scotland. He was a straight-A student at St Kentigern’s Academy in Blackburn. At the age of 16, Rodgers quit school and left home for Edinburgh at the age of 16.

After years learning his craft in less high-profile roles, his portrayal of a murdering heroin addict on NYPD Blue brought Michael to the attention of casting directors.
