A graduate of Yale University, Strong continued his acting studies at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and the Steppenwolf Theatre Company in Chicago.

His film debut came that same year with the comedy Humboldt County. He played minor roles in the 2012 films Lincoln and Zero Dark Thirty before receiving early recognition for Parkland (2013) and The Big Short (2015).
