DANIEL DAVIS | 1945
Daniel Davis has successfully made a big name for himself on the big and small screen. His fame started on the TV series Texas, followed by its spinoff, Another World. From here, he continued a prolific career as a TV actor and made his most famous role on The Nanny as Niles the Butler, thanks to his English accent. He used this intonation when he played Professor Moriarty when he made a guest appearance on Star Trek: The Next Generation.
In addition to these credits, Davis is also an established theatre actor. He also taught acting classes at the American Conservatory Theater for six years and worked at Oregon Shakespeare Festival and the Stratford Shakespeare Festival. Davis has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Arkansas Arts Center. Today, at the age of 76, he remains active in the business and was last seen in a 2020 episode of Dispatches from Elsewhere as Octavio Coleman, Esq.
