Ever found yourself captivated by a character so unsettling, so uniquely quirky, that they etch themselves into your memory long after the credits roll? David Patrick Kelly, the master of the memorable, is precisely that kind of actor; a chameleon who disappears into roles, leaving audiences both thrilled and slightly unnerved.

Born on January 23, 1951, in Detroit, Michigan, David Patrick Kelly is more than just an actor; he's a musician, a lyricist, and a performer who has graced both the silver screen and the television screen with his unique brand of charisma and intensity. The son of Margaret Elizabeth (Murphy) and Robert Corby Kelly, Sr., an accountant, Kellys upbringing in the Motor City hardly foreshadowed his rise as a celebrated character actor, but his passion for performance burned bright from an early age.
