Biography

Keating was born in Leicester to an Irish father and an English mother; his grandfather, a brigadier general, was awarded an OBE from King George VI. His first stage performance was in primary school, playing a cripple in The Ragged School. He then attended Uppingham School.

After graduating from the University of London with a B.A. in History, he tried various jobs before deciding to be a professional actor. To obtain his Equity card, Keating worked in a drag act called Feeling Mutual. His fiancée, Canadian actress Jilana Stewart, met him while they were working together in Spain on ChromiumBlue.com.

Keating had a good amount of success on the UK stage prior to working as a televison and film actor. He originated the role of "Cosmo" in Philip Ridley's The Pitchfork Disney, as well as that of "Bryan" in Michael Wall's Amongst Barbarians
.

Keating first came to public attention in the UK when he had a semi-regular role in the Channel 4 sitcom Desmond's (1989-95), the first sitcom to feature a nearly all-black cast. He went on from this to a role in Inspector Morse, as well as other guest-starring roles.

Having moved to the United States, he gained the role of the demonic warrior Mallos on the short-lived series, The Immortal. He also made a guest appearance on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, as well as on several other series. He has appeared in films, including The Hollywood Sign, Jungle 2 Jungle
, and the upcoming films Certifiably Jonathan, Hollywood Kills, The Auteur Theory, and Robert Zemeckis' animated version of Beowulf
.

Keating also does commercial and voiceover work, perhaps most famously on an early 1990s Vidal Sasson commercial, where his pronunciation of "salon" and dashing good looks brought him some notice as well as a spoof on Saturday Night Live
. He has also done voice work for various audio books.

As of 2005, Keating maintains homes in both London and Los Angeles. He is known as a bodysurfer and a devout golfer.
