- Mark Saul was born on June 20, 1985 in the West Hills section of Los Angeles, California, USA as Mark Adam Saul. He is best known for his work on All That (1994), Grey's Anatomy (2005), The Social Network (2010), and Parks and Recreation (2009). He was born into a family of Eastern European descent. He got his start singing, dancing, and acting in a musical theater, and had won first place at a Shakespeare Festival Competition. At the age of 10, Saul won first place in a writing contest sponsored by the California Writers' Club San Fernando Valley Branch.
He got his first break in starring in Nickelodeon's All That (1994). It was his first TV series. Saul joined the cast of All That as a featured player in 1998, with Nick Cannon. Saul's most famous sketch was Stuart, a guy who would pretend to be something. His catchphrase was, "Well, if I was _________, I'd be the greatest _______ in all the land, and people will gather 'round and say, "Oh Stuart, you're the greatest _________ EVER!. Now there's only one thing left to do. Let me hop on my _____, and fly away." During the All That auditions, he did a male version of the Ask Ashley segment. Ironically, in one of the show's episodes, his character "Stuart" ends up taking over Ask Ashley where he is dressed in female's clothing. Saul was promoted to contract status in the sixth season, and lasted until the end of the Golden Era in 2000. He appeared in the 10th Anniversary Reunion Special, despite not having any lines.
Like many other Nickelodeon stars at the time, he was also a contestant on the show Figure It Out (1997), mostly appearing in the final season, Figure It Out: Wild Style. He was known as one of the guys to ask the stupid yet funny questions on the show.
After leaving the show, he continued on his education at El Camino Real High School in the San Fernando Valley, where he participated in the Thespians Club and Drama class. He was also president of his high school club Comedy Sportz League. He had starred in a lead role in his high school film project, "Passing Moments". The film was released on May 24, 2003 in the Los Angeles area only. During this same time, Saul had started his own rock band called Another Man's Trash, and their video, "Such a Fantasy" aired on VH1. He had recently graduated from California State University, Northridge with a Bachelor's Art in Screenwriting.
From 2007-2012, he starred on Grey's Anatomy (2005) as Steve Mostow, an intern in Seattle Grace Hospital. He has also appeared in numerous national commercials throughout the years. When he's not on set, Saul is creating art for his Etsy shop, Novel Brand, writing and performing with his sketch comedy group, Rat Pageant, and playing in the folk/rock band, The Flashcards. He currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife and two children.- IMDb Mini Biography By: Lucy

- Practice doesn't make perfect, it makes habit.
- For my audition, I did a boy version of "Ask Ashley." I didn't hear from them from another year, but then I came back and was given another chance. I did this thing when I was in elementary where I would impersonate animals. My friends thought it was funny, so I worked that into the audition. They ended up incorporating that into the Stuart character I played. [on auditioning for All That]
- Danny and I wrote a sketch called "Animal Wranglers," where we played two animal hunter guys who come into a classroom and teach kids, but we end up injuring ourselves and the kids. That started with Danny and I talking about funny ideas after rehearsals. After we spent a night writing the script, we gave it to one of the writers and they invited us into the writers' room to work on it with them. My biggest regret is that I had to leave early from that meeting because I had an English test. [on co-writing sketches for All That with fellow cast member Danny Tamberelli]
- [on his favorite character on the show, Complex Interview, 2014] I genuinely loved Coach Kreeton, especially the stuff he would improvise. There was something about how Kel did it that I could imagine everyone thinking it's hilarious, not just the kids it was intended for.
- [on his favorite musical guest on All That, Complex Interview, 2014] One time Outkast was on and they did "Rosa Parks." They finished the song and we came out like, "Thanks for watching the show!" And then they replayed the track and the Outkast just started doing the song again for no reason with all of us on stage, so we got to be there doing the song with them.
