Daniel is a NY-born actor and fight director. With a young face and an old-school aura, Daniel is as comfortable playing an earnest young lead in a contemporary film as he is playing a cold, calculating swordsman in a period-drama. He's worked both in theatre and film, and is always excited to collaborate and create with new artists. He has particularly extensive experience with classical work, some of which was featured in the New York Times. For more about Daniel, his website is: https://www.danwlight.com/
