To begin with, he is the second of three children raised in Elliotts’ family. As a teenager, David was interested in rock’ n’ roll music and was the leader of a group, so left school to devote himself to music. David and his group played in the clubs of Toronto, changed its name several times, before eventually dissolving. Elliott abandoned music and returned to Milton to finish high school. His teacher, impressed by his performance in the play “King Lear”, encouraged him to choose the actor’s path. He entered the Ryerson Polytechnic Institute in Toronto, and subsequently David took part in Canada’s Stratford Festival in Ontario. More, he won the Jean Chalmers Award in the category of the Best Hope.

Afterwards, he starred in a short film in which he was noticed by one of the producers of Street Legal. He received an offer to portray Toronto police officer Nick Holgado in the CBC television series “Street Legal” (1987 – 1994). Then in 1990, Elliott tried his luck in Hollywood without success. He made several appearances in feature films and television series, yet only as a guest artist. Then he landed the main role in the series “The Untouchables” (1992 – 1993), and in the following years, Elliott was cast in a recurring role in the hit series “Melrose Place” (1994 – 1995). The greatest success in his career has without a doubt been the series “JAG” (1995 – 2005), playing the lead role of Harmon Rabb Jr, which significantly boosted his net worth.

Meanwhile, David also appeared in a number of television films, including “Dodson’s Journey” (2001), “Code 11 – 14” (2003), “The Stranger I Married” (2005), “Sixty Minute Man” (2006) as well as in the feature films “Clockwatchers” (1997), “Stanley’s Gig” (2000) and “The Shrink Is In” (2001). In 2008, he began the recurring role of David Renwald in the series “The Guard”, as well as creating the role on Morgan Roberts in the film “The Rainbow Tribe”. In 2009, David James starred in the miniseries “Impact”, “Knights of Bloodsteel” and “The Storm”. The following year, he had the main role in the ABC series “Scoundrels” (2010) and created the lead role in the horror film “Terror Trap” (2010) written and directed by Dan Garcia.

Recently, Elliot was cast as the main in the drama film “Trumbo” (2015) by Jay Roach. To conclude, all the aforementioned roles have increased the outright size of David James Elliott.

#Quote
1I remember on 'JAG,' Joe Jackson punched Stephen Culp and shattered his nose.
2I've never made choices based on money - I always trust my gut.
3Usually in fist fights you get punched in the face.
4I grew up playing war. We threw dirt and rocks at each other. We'd lead attacks. We'd break up into squads. It became a neighborhood thing for a while, our neighborhood against the other neighborhood. There was always a war breaking out somewhere.
5At Stratford, I worked with a man named Patty Crane (Paddy Crean) who was Errol Flynn's stand-in back in the '30s in Hollywood.
6I had never done any theater in high school, which actually worked to my benefit. I didn't develop any bad habits.
7But I do enjoy the freedom of doing a movie and then having some time off.
8I once got a letter from a woman who told me she was 90. She said if she were 30 years younger, I would have had to watch out. I guess 60 seems really young when you're 90. She said she would eat me with a spoon.
9I've always been fairly reserved and laid-back.
10I'm the star of the show. I should have a decent haircut.
11You can never rely on musicians. I quit high school at one point to make a go of it with this band and we kept breaking up. So I went back to school.
12Maybe our young people are not as vacuous as we would like to lead ourselves to believe - that all they're interested in is hairdos and looking at other beautiful people. Maybe they're interested in learning something.
#Fact
1Runs the Boston Marathon to raise awareness of youth programs for The Salvation Army.
2David and Nanci's son, Wyatt, was born March 3, 2003.
3He and his wife became U.S. citizens.
4David and Nanci's daughter, Stephanie, was born 15 March 1993.
5He is the second of three sons of Arnold Smith, a heating and plumbing wholesaler-contractor, and his wife, Pat, an office manager.
6Grew up in Milton, but spent much time in the Bahamas, as most of his relatives on his father's side lived there.
7Went back to finish high school at 19.
8Auditioned for the world-renowned Stratford Shakespearean Festival in Stratford, Ontario and was accepted as a member of its Young Company and was there for two years.
9At one point was working in a belt factory.
10David's early interest was in music - rock 'n roll music. He was front man for a band. David briefly quit high school to play with the band full time.
11Attended Ryerson Polytechnic University in Toronto, Ontario.
12He had another wedding ceremony with his wife Nancy on 26 June 1999 in Santa Barbara, California. This was to compensate for the original marriage (in City Hall in 1992), when they didn't have much money. Their daughter Stephanie was the flower-girl.
13Chosen by People (USA) magazine as one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world [1996]
