ABOUT YUVAL

Award-winning and celebrated actor, host, filmmaker and advocate Yuval David puts his entire being into all he does. He engages through his unique creativity, powerful energy and captivating artistry that emanates from his passionate vitality, vulnerable soulfulness, quick wit, perceptive viewpoint, alluring enthusiasm, charming charisma, and genuine kindness.

On a mission to entertain, uplift, inspire, and empower, Yuval is a storyteller, approaching the narrative through his work as an actor, host and filmmaker.

Throughout his creative journey as an actor, Yuval plays major roles in film, television, theatre, web, digital media, and voice overs.

As a TV Host/Presenter, Yuval focuses on societal, humanitarian, cultural, travel, food, environmental, and entertainment programming.

As a filmmaker, Yuval produces, directs, and writes short and feature films, documentaries, web-series, digital and TV content.

"The elements of my career are all fused together, and my approach to each element is similar. As an actor, host, filmmaker, and advocate, I create Communitas. Communitas is a Latin term for when the spirit of community is created. When an audience reacts together to my play, film, show, or speech, they are a community that becomes equal due to their shared experience. That is the power of this art form. I can bring people together, into a shared experience, and create the spirit of community. Though this method, I aim to actualize a unification of people as the us/we instead of the us/them".

KIND WORDS

 

JOHN QUINONES

NEWS CORRESPONDENT & HOST | ABC’s “What Would You Do?”

“Yuval is such an incredibly talented actor. His numerous appearances on “What Would You Do?” have showcased his amazing ability to create and explore characters and, make bold choices in improv. His lightning quick wit and kind nature make him a tremendous joy to work with!”

JONATHAN BROWN

DIRECTOR | CBS’ “MADAM SECRETARY”

“Working with Yuval is very enjoyable. He is a pleasure to direct and delivers an impressive performance. I look forward to working with him again.”

JILL SALVINO

DIRECTOR | JUST JILL PRODUCTIONS

“Directing Yuval is a treat, as he is committed to his craft and artistry, is thoughtful regarding his process and all those he works with, and he brings amazing intensity and high energy to support his craft.
I have worked with Yuval on three films, more than any other actor. There is a reason for that. His positive spirit and dedication to craft makes him an asset to any filmmaker. His versatility makes it possible for me to cast him in a variety of roles. Not many actors can handle Shakespeare, drama and comedy and be equally versed, but Yuval is. His sense of timing and humor help differentiate him as does his sense of humanity.
At a SAG/AFTRA lecture I attended, Jeff Daniels said something that has stuck with me. It was about how an actor must show up knowing their words and role inside and out. Once they step on set, it all starts from there and builds. Yuval exemplifies that thought.”

PAUL RUDDY

CASTING DIRECTOR | CSA

“I have had the pleasure of casting Yuval in films and becoming his friend, which is easy to do. The adjectives I use to describe Yuval are handsome, funny, relatable, dynamic, intelligent, versatile, charming, enthusiastic, vulnerable, curious, compelling, likable, and appealing.”

MATT NEWTON

ACTING COACH | MN ACTING STUDIO

“Yuval is a strong actor with dynamic range. He is completely moldable. Yuval makes calculated decisions, and when in the scene, he is completely invested in the moment, heightened, unpredictable, and layered. He is the kind of actor who is great to direct and coach, because he loves the process, invests his entire being, is fully present, puts in the work and seems effortless in his delivery.”

JANICE GOLDBERG

ARTISTIC DIRECTOR | AND THEATRE COMPANY

“Yuval David is the director’s dream — smart, clever, inventive, accessible. He is joyful in his work, and when that work includes his own writing, he soars. Yuval is a captivating performer, an artist, who gives his all, and invites you to join in his journey.
Do you need a smart, talented, generous, creative, passionate soul to bring your work to life? Or maybe even to create something specific for you? Yuval David is a kick- ass performer, writer, deeply talented actor and voice over artist. Always thinking, always digging for that something extra to discover. And always a joy to work with.”

When he teaches and speaks in acting programs, he inspires and motivates others to be the best they can be. Yuval, as an actor, is ‘you all’ - he dives deeply into his characters and gives them powerful life. He is the kind of actor who any production is blessed to have, as he gives everything he has and goes even further than what any producer, director, scene-partner, casting-director, or acting coach could ever imagine.”

HOST/PRODUCER | PEOPLE OF PURPOSE

Yuval David is definitely a person of purpose, his soulfulness, his vulnerability, his transparency in who he is and what he does is just incredible. Yuval really helped me to recognize the power of just being a kind person. I love how Yuval focuses on those little impacts on people that bring out their bravest and fullest selves. Yuval helped me to see that empowered people are their most purposeful selves. I love how Yuval creates these safe spaces for people to participate in big ways. It’s very inspiring how Yuval places people in important roles in productions. I think there’s so much leaders can learn from this philosophy in subtle and scalable ways. I know that Yuval’s experience and expertise in finding his creative craft and connecting others to it is infectious to listen to.
