So following the footsteps of his elder brother, David played some roles at his local church. It was here that he knew, he was born for acting. During high school, he actively took part in plays & continued in the local plays as well. Later he went to Wayne State University in Detroit, where not only learnt the craft but also played in the professional theatre.

However, as his biography reveals, it took a full decade, which was filled with cameos on TV shows like Murder One, Space: Above & Beyond & Her Costly Affair, for his career to bloom which, resulted in him landing in movies like The Nutty Professor & A Very Brady Sequel in 1996. Following these two hits was Con Air, which quickly got him the much-needed attention. Before getting his big break in Con Air, David was working at a Video Store.
