Bio from Official Site: Dr. Will Zimmerman is a brilliant forensic psychiatrist who gained stature while working with the Federal authorities. A master of behavioral science, he can translate the most veiled human signals into case-breaking deductions. Problem is, no one believes him. His fascination with alternative and otherworldly explanations for horrific crimes has cost him the respect of his peers - and his job.
He is recognized as a good man with an inarguable talent for psychiatry and analysis. However, his inability to submit to the status quo of crime investigation has resulted in demotions and a mundane affiliation with Homicide in Old City.
Swift with a clever quip, usually in an effort to redirect an awkward situation, Will is instantly likable. Upon joining Magnus in her work at the Sanctuary, Will discovers a new and strange world that is both logically unbelievable yet intuitively plausible to him. While ahead of his time, and at least partially open to the world of ‘abnormals’, he reacts to the unusual and fantastical in a way we can all understand.
The team quickly learns that Will is less than comfortable with a gun, but Magnus is certain his instinct and genuine thirst to know the truth will prove invaluable in her fascinating work
