"After knowing him for three decades, I am constantly impressed and inspired by his commitment to growth as an artist. David's understanding that we have within us, at any and all stages, the capacity to evolve makes him particularly suited to guide and enrich the experience of young people."
-- Sharon Lawrence
4-Time Emmy-nominated actor
"David Dean Bottrell has a lot of things to stay about acting, being an actor, pursuing a life filled with work as an actor, getting back up after one has gone through a spell of trouble and holding steady, about all of it. And the important thing is that he says these things with eloquence and fire and a full knowledge of what he's talking about. This kind of life requires someone to speak about it eloquently. And thus helpfully.
So welcome David Dean Bottrell and WORKING ACTOR."
