Until You Walk
The Path, You Won’t Know Where it Goes will be chatting with actor,
director, and writer, David Selby November 24, 2014 at 12 pm eastern
as he talks about his new projects and shares his Dark Shadows
memories.
Actor David Selby, highly regarded for his villainous work on both
daytime and nighttime soap classics, was born in Morgantown, West
Virginia. He attended West Virginia University and graduated with
both B.S. and M.A. degrees from West Virginia University, then earned
a Ph.D. from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale.
Following many years on the stock stage (from 1961), David finally
attracted infamous attention when he signed on as Quentin Collins, a
werewolf, on the gothic daytime drama "Dark Shadows" in
1968. He inherited heartthrob status briefly with the role and even
recorded two songs during the show's run, "Quentin's Theme"
and "I Wanna Dance With You." After the series' demise, he
made his movie debut with Night of Dark Shadows (1971), the second
film based on the cult series.
He broached top film stardom in the early 1970s after co-starring
with Barbra Streisand in Up the Sandbox (1972) and Ron Leibman in The
Super Cops (1974), and continued his high-profiled pace with New York
theatre productions of "The Heiress" (1976), with Jane
Alexander and Richard Kiley, and "Eccentricities of a
Nightingale" (1976) with Betsy Palmer, but things didn't quite
pan out.
In the 1980s, however, steady TV work helped put an extra shot of
adrenalin back into David's career, notably as the cunning Richard
Channing on the nighttime soap "Falcon Crest," a role he
played from 1982 until 1990. David has graced most of the popular
series over the years including "The Waltons," "Police
Woman," "Kojak," "Family," "Touched by
an Angel," and "Ally McBeal." He has also appeared
sporadically in white-collar film support with roles in Dying Young
(1991), White Squall (1996) and Surviving Christmas (2004) to his
credit. David continues to perform on stage as well.
He portrayed Abraham Lincoln in his own play "Lincoln and
James" in 1997 and 1998, and penned the play "Final
Assault" which premiered in 2003.
He is a staple player in radio drama with the L.A. Theatre Works
these days. David and longtime wife Chip have three children.
