Born in Nelson, British Columbia, Canada, Daniel moved to Edmonton, Alberta when he was 5 and starred in his first professional theatre production at the age of 12. He continued to act, write, and direct through his teenage years and graduated with Distinction from the University of Alberta's BFA Acting Program. He now lives in Vancouver, BC. As an actor/writer, Daniel toured his award-winning stage play "Tuesdays & Sundays" (written with Medina Hahn) across Canada and internationally, being hailed in Toronto, Edmonton, Vancouver, and New York as one of the Best Plays of the Year. "Tuesdays & Sundays" was published twice, broadcast as a radio play on CBC and BBC (starring David Tennant), and was optioned as a feature film by Slate Films of London UK (The Last King of Scotland (2006)) and by producer Clare Hodge (Love and Other Dilemmas (2006)). Daniel's latest stage play "Any Night" (which he also co-wrote and performed with Medina Hahn) won Outstanding New Play at Toronto's Summerworks Festival, was published by Playwrights Canada Press, and mentioned among Toronto Now's Best Shows of 2008. As a writer/director, Daniel won the National Screen Institute Drama Prize to make his 35mm short film The Janitors (2006) (co-written/directed with Matthew Kowalchuk), starring William B. Davis and Medina Hahn, mentored by Jason Margolis and Daniel Petrie Jr.. The Janitors (2006) screened at numerous Canadian and international festivals (including Vancouver International Film Festival and the Hollywood Film Festival), was broadcast on CBC's Canadian Reflections, and attained world wide distribution from interfilm Berlin. Daniel is adapting two stage plays into feature films in which he will star: his own "Any Night" (with Medina Hahn), and Morris Panych's "Lawrence & Holloman" (with Matthew Kowalchuk). Both projects are for producer Paul Armstrong and have development from Movie Central and BC Film. Daniel Arnold and Medina Hahn are the co-founders of DualMinds; in 2008, Daniel MacIvor bestowed them with the protege portion of "The Siminovitch Prize", Canada's most prestigious theatre award.
