Mike Diamond is a Television Personality, Director, Life Coach, and Interventionist. Known for his work on the hit TV shows NY Ink and Bondi Ink Tattoo Crew, (currently nominated for a Logie Award for Best Reality Series) Mike has been a professional actor, director, musician, and NYC restaurant owner for the past twenty years. Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Mike battled severe undiagnosed dyslexia, which led to poor grades, as well as alcohol and drug abuse starting at the age of 12. After finishing high school and enrolling in acting school, Mike won a green card to the US in 1997 and made the move to Miami. Shortly after his arrival, Mike landed a role on the CBS sitcom, Grapevine from Director David Frankel. After Grapevine, Mike moved to NYC, where he worked on various projects including as a guest star on Sex and the City. Mike wrote, created and starred in a VH1 pilot with former Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver frontman, Scott Weiland. Splitting his time between NYC, Miami and Los Angeles, Mike had regular gigs performing stand up at Carolines on Broadway and The Comedy Store. Mike was properly introduced into the tattoo world when he appeared on Miami Ink. He later became the store manager for his good friend, Ami James, at Wooster St and starred on Season 3 of NY Ink. Mike then headed back to his hometown where he wrote, directed, produced, and starred in Bondi Ink Tattoo Crew, based on Bondi Beach. Although Mike has had plenty of highs in his life, he has also had his low moments along the way. Mike has battled cocaine and alcohol addiction for the majority of his life. After witnessing the death of Scott Weiland, Mike got sober on April 16, 2006. Since then, Mike has literally helped hundreds of people on the road to recovery. He is on beck and call to all his clients and friends, helping them through their life problems and battles with addiction.
