It is with great sadness that we note the passing of veteran actor Don S. Davis at age 65. Don was a truly special individual, much beloved by both his fans and fellow cast members. He was famous for his humbleness and love, generosity and kindness toward his fans. He'll be greatly missed.
From his official website:
Don was born and raised in Missouri Ozark in Aurora, Missouri in August 1942. His picturesque home is made up of towns and farms, rivers and lakes. This was the perfect artistic inspiration that sparked a love of drawings, paintings and carvings found on his personal site www.donsdavisart.com. Although Don’s full time acting career did not start until 1987, he received his bachelor degree in science and achieved a double major in theatre and art from Southwest Missouri State College in 1965. He went on to serve in the army, and upon leaving his duties had achieved the rank of Captain.
Don completed his Masters Degree in 1970 and achieved his Phd in 1982. He then taught for a number of years at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC before starting his acting career.
Don was a veteran character actor in the film and television industry. He is best known for his roles as Major Garland Briggs in the series, TWIN PEAKS, and for his portrayal of General George Hammond in the series, STARGATE SG-1. You can view his filmography at www.donsdavis.com.
