"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."
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.”
