DAVID DUCHOVNY (FBI Special Agent
Fox Mulder) is the brilliant and sullen FBI agent whose belief in the existence
of the unexplainable drives him to explore cases deemed unsolvable by the
Bureau. For his work on "The X-Files," Duchovny won the 1997 Golden Globe
for Best Actor in a Dramatic Series; he had received two prior Golden Globe
nominations. He was also nominated for two Screen Actors Guild Awards and
a TV Critic's Award for Best Actor in a Dramatic Series. His work on "The
X-Files'" fourth season won him a 1997 Emmy Award nomination for Best Actor
in a Dramatic Series. Duchovny was also nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding
Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his highly acclaimed and some say risqué
appearance on "The Larry Sanders Show" in 1997. He just completed work
on the series finale for that landmark show. His passion for renegade films
has brought him critical acclaim for his performances in the feature films
"Kalifornia," in which he co-starred with Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis;
"The Rapture," the controversial film directed by Michael Tolkin in which
Duchovny starred opposite Mimi Rogers; and "Julia Has Two Lovers," in which
he turned in a much heralded performance as a telephone hustler. Duchovny
played Roland "Rollie" Totheroh, Charlie Chaplin's longtime confidante
and cameraman in the Sir Richard Attenborough directed "Chaplin," which
starred Robert Downey, Jr. in the title role; and starred in the smash
hit "Beethoven," opposite Charles Grodin, as the evil yuppie determined
to take over Charles Grodin's company. He recently appeared in the lead
role of 'Dr. Eugene Sands' in the action thriller "Playing God." Still
recognized for his role as 'Dennis/Denise Bryson', the transvestite detective
in David Lynch's breakthrough television series "Twin Peaks," Duchovny
has also spent five years as the impassioned narrator of Zalman King's
erotic anthology series "Red Shoe Diaries," which began as a feature length
telefilm for Showtime. On stage, Duchovny has appeared in such plays as
"The Copulating Machine of Venice, California" and "Green Cockatoo." Born
and raised in New York City, Duchovny attended Princeton University (where
he played one season as shooting guard on the school's basketball team),
and then received his masters degree in English Literature from Yale, where
he also pursued a Ph.D. He is married to actress Tea Leoni.
