    David John Clark is an actor and podcaster. He is the host of the popular podcast "The Late Bloomer Actor" in which listeners learn valuable insights from other actors and industry insiders that have crossed path with David on his journey as a 'late bloomer actor'. David got his first taste of acting as an extra in the booming movie industry in Sydney during the 1990's, including a small role in Star Wars 'Attack Of The Clones' of which he personally received direction from the great George Lucas. Little did he know then, that 20 years later this would be his calling. With his realisation that he was now in his forties, David stepped up and began various acting training courses in Adelaide from 2013, which includes ongoing training and mentor-ship today by Greg Apps (Casting Director Sydney) as well as training with Jeff Seymour of The Real Life Actor (USA), StageMilk Online Drama and more recently the wonderful Les Chantery in Sydney. David has gone on to become a well-known and respected actor in the South Australian film and television industry as a source of support, mentorship, advice and training in his delivery of various online acting sources including his monthly podcast series and regular 'Off Script' bite size info sessions. David is your Teacher, Doctor, Father Figure or Enforcer type, but can draw on his experience living in different states and working with many different people and cultures when needed. His acting style is naturalistic, drawing on life experiences for character development. David is also a competitive bodybuilder and has competed in several Australian state championships. David is married and has 3 sons, his youngest is studying at Flinders University in a Bachelor Of Performance (Acting).
