His parents are actors Bruce Boxleitner and Kathryn Holcomb Ogilvy, and actor Ian Ogilvy is his step-father. His brother Lee Boxleitner, half-brother Michael Boxleitner, and step-brother Dakota Brinkman are actors as well.Sam attended Chaminade College Preparatory in Los Angeles where he excelled in the arts, especially drama and music. After starring in several plays and small film roles, Sam made the decision to put acting on hold to focus on music. He attended Musicians Institute in Hollywood, California where he attained a commercial certificate for contemporary composition and guitar. Sam spent the better half of a decade composing music and touring with various bands locally and nationally. After a long and tumultuous tour, Sam took a job as a runner that eventually landed him a job as a set production assistant. After approximately fifteen minutes of being on set, Sam was bitten by "the bug" and made the decision he would stop at nothing to be in front of the camera. He has not looked back since.In 2014, Sam and his brother Lee Boxleitner produced the short film, "Downstairs" which earned them much praise along the horror film festival circuit including screenings at the largest and longest running film festival in the United States, Screamfest Horror Film Festival, the United Kingdom's Dark Scream Film Festival and Eliot Brodsky's Monsterpalooza.
