THE ACTOR
David started his acting career at the age of 7 at the
famous Karamu House Theater in Cleveland Ohio.
After several years of stage plays like The West Side
Story, Street Car Named Desire and Neil Simon’s
Fools, David tried his hand in the LA talent pool.
David studied his craft at Primetime Actors Studio
and early on he landed guest star roles on shows like
Malcolm and Eddie, Living Single and soon found
himself making appearances on shows like HBO’s
Entourage, True Stories of the ER and movies like
Kevin Hart’s Something Like a Business and Danni
Trejo’s Badass. At one point David even hosted his
own talk show before landing a reoccurring role on
Tyler Perry’s Meet the Browns as the politically
incorrect school teacher.
