David William Smith Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
David James Elliott was born on September 21, 1960 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada as David William Smith. He is an actor and director, known for JAG (1995), The Stranger I Married (2005) and Street Legal (1987). He has been married to Nanci Chambers since 1992. They have two children.
I remember on 'JAG,' Joe Jackson punched Stephen Culp and shattered his nose.

I've never made choices based on money - I always trust my gut.
3
Usually in fist fights you get punched in the face.
4
I grew up playing war. We threw dirt and rocks at each other. We'd lead attacks. We'd break up into squads. It became a neighborhood thing for a while, our neighborhood against the other neighborhood. There was always a war breaking out somewhere.
5
At Stratford, I worked with a man named Patty Crane (Paddy Crean) who was Errol Flynn's stand-in back in the '30s in Hollywood.
6
I had never done any theater in high school, which actually worked to my benefit. I didn't develop any bad habits.
7
But I do enjoy the freedom of doing a movie and then having some time off.
8
I once got a letter from a woman who told me she was 90. She said if she were 30 years younger, I would have had to watch out. I guess 60 seems really young when you're 90. She said she would eat me with a spoon.

I've always been fairly reserved and laid-back.
10
I'm the star of the show. I should have a decent haircut.
11
You can never rely on musicians. I quit high school at one point to make a go of it with this band and we kept breaking up. So I went back to school.
12
Maybe our young people are not as vacuous as we would like to lead ourselves to believe - that all they're interested in is hairdos and looking at other beautiful people. Maybe they're interested in learning something.
