Life and career
Hinkley's on-screen career now spans more than 20 years, and since the beginning it has been supplemented by a heavy dose of television guest roles, and periodic regular turns on TV series, including the short-lived Showtime series Hard Knocks, that also featured Bill Maher. Having appeared in the Academy Award-winning Ray's Male Heterosexual Dance Hall, he has also been known for his roles in such popular box office draws as The Cable Guy (1996), The Little Vampire (2000), Ocean's Thirteen (2007) and Leatherheads (2008).

He also made several appearances in the first season of the sitcom Mad About You as Jay Selby, the best friend of Paul Buchman (played by Paul Reiser).

In 1995, he co-starred in the short-lived Fox TV sitcom The Preston Episodes with David Alan Grier. He also did the voice of Earl Grunewald on the animated series Life with Louie.

Hinkley has since retired from acting, and now teaches the theater arts to kids.
