David Dunard is an instantly recognizable actor even if few know his name.
Seeing him reflexively elicits an immediate almost Pavlovian response of recognition. An instant sense of familiarity washes over you, even if the conscious mind can’t give voice to the gnawing and somewhat nebulous feeling of déjà vu.
To society at large Dunard may be nameless…but he is surely famous.
Acting in television shows like Roseanne, Murphy Brown, NewsRadio (1998) and Seinfeld (1991), shows so iconic they’re woven into our collective, shared pop culture tapestry. And acting in such films as the science-fiction cult classic Seedpeople (1992).

When I was in high school I would actually sign up for junk mail. It didn’t matter what it was: newspapers, magazines, anything. I’d get at least three free newspapers every day that I would never read. I’d just collect them and store them in boxes. I loved getting junk mail. It made me feel…important.
And then a couple of years later I discovered aromatherapy and things got better for me.
