On the HBO television series True Blood, Sam Merlotte (Sam Trammell), owner and operator of the local bar in Bon Temps, Louisiana, holds a front-row seat to all of the small-town drama, whether he likes it or not. Even though he tries to stay out of his patrons’ and staff’s personal lives, Sam has a protective streak, particularly when it comes to Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), and the vampire (Stephen Moyer) that she has her eye on.

Making inroads on the New York stage (which included a 1998 Tony Award nomination for Best Actor) while building an intriguing career in mostly independent features, Sam Trammell has done guest spots on such TV shows as Dexter, Cold Case, CSI: NY, Bones and House, among others. The 37-year-old actor spoke to MediaBlvd Magazine about what it’s like to be involved in such a high-profile, successful project.
