Winner of a Golden Globe Award and an American Comedy Award, and a two-time nominee for the Emmy Award for Best Actor in a Drama Series, David Duchovny once seemed an unlikely candidate to become an actor. A native New Yorker, Duchovny attended Yale University, where he received a graduate degree in English literature to prepare for a career as a teacher. While at Yale, he began commuting to New York to study acting and was soon appearing in off-Broadway plays. In 1987, in the midst of his doctoral studies, he left Yale to pursue acting full time.
Before The X-Files, Duchovny was probably best known for his memorable portrayal of Dennis/Denise, the transvestite detective in the television series Twin Peaks, and for his performance opposite Mimi Rogers in the acclaimed feature film The Rapture.
Duchovny's other feature film credits include leading roles in Return to Me, The X-Files, Playing God, Chaplin, Beethoven, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead, Kalifornia, and the critically acclaimed Julia Has Two Lovers. Duchovny was also the host of cable's The Red Shoe Diaries.
For television he has made three guest appearances playing himself on The Larry Sanders Show. One episode of that HBO show garnered him an American Comedy Award. He also did voice-over work on The Simpsons, Dr. Katz, and Duckman, and has twice hosted Saturday Night Live.
Duchovny is married to actress Tea Leoni. The couple has one child. | Page: 1
