| About Daniel Bess |
|
I was born and raised in Honolulu Hawaii. Growing up, I also spent his summers on the Chippewa resevation of Lac Du Flambeau, Wisconsin. I had/have a pair of great parents and kick ass sister and brother. I started doing theater in junior high and decided my career at 13. For the four next years I daydreamed my way through high school. My sophmore year of high school, for various reasons, was spent living in Florence Italy. After moving back to Hawaii and finishing High School, I left the islands and got into an acting conservatory. Four years later I graduated SUNY Purchase and moved to Brooklyn and did off-broadway theater for the next few years. I was fortunate to work with phenomenal directors, actors and theater companies. (Micheal Mayer, Micheal Grief, The Vinyard Theater Co., Blue Light Theater Co., NYS&F)
I ended up moving to LA for TV work and co-starred throughout the first season of Fox’s 24 as Rick, the good/bad kidnapper. Since then I worked on worked on many TV shows and a few films... check IMDB for info. While in LA I have continued my love of theater with the Anteaus company and Boston Court.
Since the time I was 16 I have also been playing and writing music, (guitar/ukulele/banjo/harmonica). I will be releasing my first album within the next few months with Soundfile productions. It’s a singer songwriter album with hawaiian/country/blues/soul influences.
Throughout the years I have supplemented my art by working as a Private Investigator, Blackjack Dealer, Bartender, Plumber, Handyman, Contracter/Carpenter, and Real Estate Agent.
Women are purty.
