D.L. Walker
Actor · Provo, Utah, USA
Whether he's frantically pacing the stage bellowing in German as George Frideric Handel in the play "Joyful Noise", or trying to save souls as missionary Elder Green in 1989 video "Saturday's Warrior," D.L. Walker is a versatile, colorful actor whose charisma captivates audiences. Born in Utah and raised everywhere else, D.L. began honing his accent and voice skills at age 14 and has lent his talents to projects in a variety of genres over the past 40 years. His unique abilities have helped him find success in theater, film, television, radio, and voiceover work. In fact, with more than 63 audio-books to his credit, you may recognize D.L.'s voice before his face. For the book "The Light Above" he had to bring 57 different characters to life who all had Scottish accents. Quite the challenge! On film D.L. 's IMDb page is full of politicians, bosses, corrupt government officials, bikers, and the occasional gay neighbor. But in the world of voice over, D.L. has been a sentient mouse, an evil bat sorcerer, a herd of sheep, a squeaky door, drops of water in a bucket, and even got to be a group of elderly men arguing with each other over how much to pay in tithing to their Church. For his most recent project, "The Other Wiseman" an animated short Christmas movie, he got to voice all of the male characters. Lately, D.L. has been playing lots of bad guys on film, which may seem ironic for those who know him. He's always the first to crack a joke, share a little song and dance, or have a crowd in stitches with one of his impressions. His zest for life and total commitment to everything he does makes D.L. irresistible as both a person and a performer. D.L. and his wife live in Utah to stay near their 6 adult children but goes where the roles call him, be it L.A., New York, or Burley, Idaho. Between projects, D.L. enjoys a variety of entrepreneurial pursuits, and he'll never stop loving long walks on the beach and long rides on his hog. That's just the way he rolls.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
