D.C. Douglas has built a fascinating and unconventional acting career spanning stage, screen, and the world of video games since 1985.
On the big and small screens, D.C. has made memorable appearances in peculiar and cult indie films like Sharknado 2: The Second One (2014) and Black Ops (2008), Aquarium of the Dead (2021) and Isle of the Dead (2016). As a TV "journeyman" he's guest-starred or recurred in over 50 shows, including Boston Common (1996), The Bold and the Beautiful (1987), Z Nation (2014) , and CSI: Vegas (2021).
Unexpectedly finding success in voice-over, D.C. stumbled into the field as a "career add-on" introduced to him by his commercial agent, Katy Wallin, in the early '90s. Notably, he's been featured in major commercial campaigns for Geico's "Real Person" series ('05-'08), Ashley Furniture Homestore ('03 - '06), and Experian ('16 - '18), alongside SpongeBob SquarePants (1999)'s Tom Kenny.
In the video game world, he's known as the conflicted Rayvis in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (2023), the the heart-string-pulling Geth, Legion, in the Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (2021) trilogy, the voice of the iconic villain, Albert Wesker, in "Resident Evil" games from 2007-2019, and Kamoshida in Persona 5 (2016).
His anime roles have garnered him a dedicated fanbase as well, with notable performances as Yoshikage Kira in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (2012), Wooden Sword Ryu in Shaman King (2021) and Praetorian in Super Crooks (2021). Cartoon highlights include Transformers: Rescue Bots (2011) and Regular Show (2010).
Originally from Berkeley, California, D.C. honed his craft in theater across the San Francisco Bay Area in the late '70s and early '80s. His family's rich history in the circus, vaudeville, and burlesque (thanks to his grandmother Grace Hathaway) led him to pursue an acting career in Los Angeles.
He received formal training at the Estelle Harman Actor's Workshop from '85 to '89 and was an integral part of the highly acclaimed New One-Act Theatre Ensemble (Theatre of NOTE) from '89 to '93, where he also produced several plays and a few cabaret shows in the '90s and 2000s.
D.C. has also written, produced and directed numerous short films over the years. Most notably was The Crooked Eye (2009), starring Academy Award winner Linda Hunt, which received several awards.
Politically, D.C. found himself in the spotlight in 2010 when he mocked the Tea Party movement on social media, garnering both fans and detractors. His appearances on Fox News' Geraldo Rivera Reports (2003) and CNN's Joy Behar: Say Anything! (2009), further fueled the buzz.
This newfound popularity led him to create satirical political videos poking fun at bigotry ("Burn A Koran Day"), online misogyny Anne Thériault's the Feminist in the Wild (2015), and corporate greed ("Why #OccupyWallStreet" which was aired on The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell (2010)). During the Trump years he wrote, produced and directed 19 episodes of Breaking News: Fake Trump Cartoons! (2017) featuring the voices of many popular voice actors, including Jason Marsden, Maurice LaMarche, Steve Blum, and Robbie Daymond.
Thanks to his popularity among video game and anime enthusiasts, D.C. frequently makes appearances at anime and culture conventions. Alongside countless appearances in the US, he has participated in events in Canada, the UK, Australia, and the Middle East.
