Born in Philadelphia, Worth is from German and Native American heritage. At the age of 11, he directed his first film titled The Tire with a super 8mm camera he had spent his allowance on. He continued making short films and experimental video projects during his youth. Sometime later when he moved to Los Angeles, Worth grabbed a handful of small parts in film and television including "Pacific Blue" and "Alien Nation". He lived with his dog in his truck for 6 months in Los Angeles while trying to save money. Surviving on odd jobs and construction work, Michael grabbed whatever small parts he could as he climbed the Hollywood ladder. His first lead role came with the film independent action film Final Impact from which he was labeled a "a promising newcomer" by Variety magazine. Signed to several films with PM Entertainment, he worked through a series of low budget films before landing the role of "Tommy"on TV series Acapulco H.E.A.T.. He was also one of the front-runners for the role of Robin in Batman Forever, ultimately making a cameo in a fight scene with Chris O`Donnell. In 2004, he wrote and directed the ultra independent experimental film Killing Cupid. It grabbed him a Best Director nomination at the Action On Film Film Festival in 2005 as well as "Best Fiction Film" at the "Hollywood Documentary and Fiction Film Festrival" in 2006. As he continued to act in a variety of small idi films like "The Storytellers" with Tippi Hedren, Michael continued to hone his skills as a filmmaker by Ghost writing for various films and television as well as directing second unit ("Demon Hunter", etc.) in hopes of creating the kind of projects he had originally came to Hollywood to do. Worth acted in and wrote the screenplays for the psychological thriller western Dual (2005) and the sci-fi film Devil On The Mountain (2006). Finally given the opportunity to put a film together from the ground up, Worth began the film "God`s Ears" which he wrote, directed and played a boxer suffering from autism. Worth would be nominated for the film, a Breakout Acting Award at MethodFest 2008, and later win the two biggest awards at New York`s Visionfest, "The Jack Nance Breakout Performance Award" and "The Domani Emerging Talent Award".
