Brian Christopher O'Halloran (born December 20, 1969) is an American actor. He was born in Manhattan, New York. He is best known for his roles in Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse films, notably as Dante Hicks in Smith's debut film "Clerks" and its 2006 sequel, "Clerks II". Aside from this, he has done small appearances in most of Smith's films, either as his "Clerks" character Dante Hicks or one of his cousins.

O'Halloran is the lead actor in "Vulgar" (2000), an obscure movie about a small town's clown who is traumatized after he is attacked during one of his performances.

He has worked on theatre productions since high school. He has said on the subject of doing theatre: cquote|Oh, yeah. It's the best training you can do, as an actor. To be in front of a live audience. There's no 'Stop, wait, oh geez, what was that line again?' It just sharpens your reflexes. It sharpens your interaction. And it definitely sharpens your memory because you have to know an entire show from beginning to end.

Since "Clerks", O'Halloran has primarily been a stage actor, working with the Boomerang Theatre Company, the New Jersey Repertory Company and the Tri-State Actors Theatre, among others. He has been a resident of Old Bridge Township, New Jersey since his teens. [Cahillane, Kevin.
