Born in New York City, Adam Trese emerged from the highly competitive Actors Training Program at SUNY Purchase in 1991 and landed a starring role in Nick Gomez's groundbreaking independent, "Laws of Gravity." In the few years since, he has established a very respectable career in both film and television.
    Trese's film credits include a stand-out performance as Peter Gallagher's brother in Stephen Soderbergh's contemporary remake of the classic film noir, "The Underneath." He has also appeared in "The Saint of Fort Washington," with Matt Dillon and Danny Glover, and this past fall did a star turn in "Palookaville," directed by Alan Taylor.
    On television, he has appeared with Christine Lahti in the Lifetime feature, "The Good Fight." Trese also played a gay cop in a critically acclaimed episode of "Law & Order" and appeared last year in a recurring role on "NYPD Blue."
     In addition to "Push," audiences will be able to see Trese on the big screen this winter starring opposite Claire Danes in "Polish Wedding," a tale of a rebellious girl's first love.
