Jeffrey Warren Daniels (born February 19, 1955) is an American actor. He is well known for his work on stage and screen playing diverse characters switching between comedy and drama. He is the recipient of several accolades, including two Primetime Emmy Awards, in addition to nominations for five Golden Globe Awards, five Screen Actors Guild Awards, and three Tony Awards.
Jeff Daniels is also an accomplished musician and singer. Daniels has written and recorded six full-length albums with proceeds benefitting The Purple Rose Theater, a nonprofit stage company in Chelsea, Michigan, that he founded in 1991. Daniels says "Well, mostly I act and whatever I did must have worked because I’m doing it more now than in any decade of my career which is not how they draw it up in Star School. In 1976, I drove to New York City to learn everything I didn’t know, achieving just enough success along the way to inch my way up the Serious Actor Ladder. As my career marched on, I appeared in over seventy films, numerous television shows, returned again and again to the theatre, and am currently riding a string of once in a lifetime roles in NEWSROOM, GODLESS, LOOMING TOWER, THE COMEY RULE and a year long run on Broadway as Atticus Finch in TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD. Much as I love acting, however, I don’t do it every day. The only thing I do every day, the only thing I want to do, the only thing I have to do, is play my acoustic guitar. Back in ’76, I bought a Guild D-40, tossed it into the backseat of a beat up Buick and chased a dream. I had no idea I was bringing along my best friend. The one I would need, the one I would turn to, the one I would rely on. And now, decades later, the one who knows what I’m all about. Sometimes I’m asked if I’ll ever write a book and I always answer that I already have. It’s in my songs."
