David Sparrow is a Canadian actor, born in Solihull, Warwickshire, UK, on March 4, 1962. Launching his professional career in 1989 with the Second City National Touring Company out of Toronto, his own comedy troupe soon followed. The Random Few toured across Canada and appeared on TV and Radio. With roles in over hundred film, TV and stage productions, David has had the opportunity to work across Canada and the US with great actors, wonderful directors and amazing crews. In 2001 he wrote, performed in and co-directed the sold-out, comedy hit The Honey Murders at The Sacred Fools Theatre in Los Angeles. (LA Weekly said David channeled Ralph Kramden to the stage.) As a writer Sparrow has completed short films, a feature, TV pilots, hours of sketch comedy, a children's book, a play, short stories and dozens of radio and TV ads. His directing resume includes work for the stage, for voice-overs and for his own short films. He is a member of SAG/AFTRA, the Canadian Actor's Equity Association (CAEA) and the Alliance of Canadian Cinema, Television and Radio Artists (ACTRA) where he served as the Toronto and then National President from 2013-2021. David survives this crazy business by the adage, "Trying is succeeding; your results may vary."

    • Trivia
      In 2000, while shooting Across The Line in the Mojave Desert more than two hours from Los Angeles, David was informed he had booked a commercial for Kansas City Power and Light, shooting in Kansas City at 8:00 A.M. the next day. Things looked impossible, but the producers of the two projects put their heads together and at the end of the shoot day a helicopter landed on set and whisked David off to LAX so he could make his flight. The commercial folks were very happy and the low-budget movie makers got the added bonus of a helicopter shot!.
