David Conrad was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1967.
He is an actor and filmmaker. His many on-stage performances have included (on Broadway): Terrence Rattigan’s The Deep Blue Sea, with Ed Herrmann (Roundabout Theater); Troilus and Cressida, directed by Sir Peter Hall (TFANA); (Regional): Tom Stoppard’s Arcadia (Pittsburgh Public); Stoppard’s Indian Ink (ACT in San Francisco, American Premiere); Richard Greenberg’s Three Days of Rain, directed by Joanne Woodward (Westport County Playhouse); and the title roles of Richard II, Henry IV, and Henry V.
Conrad has also appeared in films including Return to Paradise and Men of Honor, and on television in the shows Relativity, Miss Match, and Ghost Whisperer. He has made two documentaries: A Simple Gift, about Sheldon Calvary Camp, a refuge for city kids from Pittsburgh; and Tamas, the story of a high school history teacher who fought in the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.
Conrad also works with a Pittsburgh renegade arts collective, “They Don’t Even Know,” which makes books, educates children in public schools, stages happenings, defaces billboards, pretends to enter competitions, mocks established foundation giving, and generally tries to valorize the best parts of the Steel City.
He's a huge Stravinsky Fan but AC/DC comes in a close second.
