His father was a master electrician and electrical engineer with various public utilities and municipalities in the state of Nebraska. His mother was a career nurse. As a boy Burgess was very involved with the Boy Scouts of America, eventually rising to the rank of Eagle Scout in 1976, along with Vigil Honor in Scouting's Order of the Arrow[2] later that same year. In the Order of the Arrow, he was a member of the now-renamed We-U-Shi Lodge. He rose as high in the organization as Junior Assistant Scoutmaster in Troop 114 of the Overland Trails Council in Grand Island, Nebraska. He graduated from Central City High School in 1978. He joined the United States Navy right out of high school and became a Hospital Corpsman.[3] He was eventually assigned to the United States Marine Corps, serving with the 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines at Camp Pendleton, California, from 1980 to 1982. After being honorably discharged from the Navy he worked as a nurse in the San Francisco Bay Area for a decade while trying to be an actor. He was a hair and hand model in various print ads while still stationed with the Marines, and worked a lot in Southern California during those years. The elder Burgess eventually became a general contractor upon moving with his wife to Oakland, California in the Spring of 1979, at which time Michael was stationed at the Naval Hospital-Oakland. Both of Burgess' parents died in 1996, within 28 days of each other, after more than 45 years together as a married couple.
