#Quote
1I've had so many projects where people have said, "This is the one that will launch you; you're going to be a big star." It hasn't happened although my career continues to build steadily. More parts are open to me, and more people know of me, and I like that better than suddenly being the new Eddie Murphy or John Travolta. When and if that kind of responsibility for a play or film is thrust on me, I'll be ready because I have a large backlog of experience.
2The thing about television is that it fades very quickly. That so-called stardom thing is very elusive. Television churns out so much so fast that each new thing erases the last. Enduring stardom, I think, takes a body of work.
3[on the benefits of film acting] There's a certain kind of smallness when they come in tight, a kind of subtlety and a kind of naturalism that you can't do on stage. You're allowed to be very, very real and very, very spontaneous.
4Film acting is about your motivation, it's about why you decide this or that, whereas on stage the action is more important than the decision.
5I've never burned to be a star. You have to have enough of a name to get the big parts with the best people.
#Fact
1Following his death, he was interred at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California.
2He was awarded the 1977 Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award for Distinguished Performance for "Travesties" at the Mark Taper Forum Theatre in Los Angeles, California.
3Attended and graduated from Redwood High School in Larkspur, Marin County, California.
4On Broadway, he played both "Frankenstein" and "Dracula".
5Classmates at Julliard School of Drama included Patty LuPone, Kevin Kline and David Ogden Stiers.
6Studied acting at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, California.
7After his death, a David Coleman Dukes Memorial Scholarship was established at the University of Southern California School of Theatre. It is presented yearly to "a junior B.A. or B.F.A. acting student who shows exemplary dedication to the craft of acting". There is also an annual invitational tennis tournament named in his memory.
8He was nominated for a 1977 Joseph Jefferson Award for Actor in a Principal Role in a Play for "Design for Living", at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago, Illinois.
9He was nominated for Broadway's 1980 Tony Award as Best Actor (Featured Role - Play) for Martin Sherman's "Bent".
10Was Rob Reiner's first choice to play the adult Gordie LaChance, the narrator of Stand by Me (1986), before being replaced by Richard Dreyfuss. In the first long shot of the adult Gordie, you can still see that it is Dukes, not Dreyfuss, sitting in the car. The story is about the character's first experiences with death. Ironically, Dukes died while appearing in another Stephen King adaptation.
11His wife, Carol Muske-Dukes, wrote a book titled "Life After Death", where a woman, upset at her husband for leaving her and their child, says to him, "Why don't you just die?". The next day, he dies of a heart attack on a tennis court. Shortly after the book was completed, David Dukes went to play tennis and died of a heart attack.
12Received numerous death threats after he played a character who tried to rape Edith Bunker in All in the Family: Edith's 50th Birthday (1977) (October 16, 1977).
13He collapsed and died in Spanaway, Washington while filming Rose Red (2002).
