Robert Davi
as "Bailey Malone"
biography
At age five, the family moved to
Long Island. After primary school, he went to Seaton Hall, a Catholic High
School where he was a school standout in football and baseball. Always
interested in performing, he had his first stage appearance in school production
of Shakespeare's Macbeth. The legends goes that one day, he was
overheard singing in the locker room by a nun walking by outside and, aware
of his natural talent, she encouraged him to go into music.
After he lost 40 pounds to a mysterious
illness at age 16, - miraculously healed - he dropped out of sports and
from now on focused on singing and acting. He won statewide opera singing
competitions, went to Florence, Italy, and studied with the renowned baritone
Tito Gobbi. At age 19 he had his debut with the Long Island Lyric Opera
in Garden City, New York.
He attended Hofstra University on
a drama scholarship and began working with its famous Shakespeare program,
but left Hofstra before graduating.
He moved to Manhattan and made a
living on jobs as pretzel vendor, telephone order clerk, waiter, fruit
and vegetable stand vendor, and worker at a stuffed animal factory. He
lived in a cheap railroad flat on East 171st Street, took classes at Juilliard
School and finally worked his way into Stella Adler's actors' studio. He
also studied with Lee Strasberg while he was already regularly performing
on stage in plays such as The Cherry Orchard and The Seagull,
Much
Ado About Nothing and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
His persistence gained him a part
alongside Frank Sinatra in Contact on Cherry Street while his personal
live was overshadowed by the death of his parents, his sister, and two
of his grandparents between 1977 and 1979. Permanently moved to L.A., he
one day met actress Jeri McBride at 20th Century Fox. They married, and
in 1980 their son Sean-Christian was born.
In the 80ies, he worked his way through
guest spots in numerous TV series and movies like The Goonies, and
Raw
Deal (with Arnold Schwarzenegger). Rugged features and an impressive
figure made him the perfect cliche bad guy for Hollywood. A major role
was overdue when he landed the part of a Palestinian terrorist in the TV
movie Terrorist on Trial: The United States vs. Salim Ajami. He
made quite an impression and finally had his international breakthrough
in the James Bond film Licence to Kill as Bond villain “Franz Sanchez”.
Around that time, he met supermodel
Christine Bolster, the original model for Guess Jeans, at a party at Mickey
Rourke's house. Later, at a photo shooting for GQ magazine, he bumped into
her again. They married, and the couple now has two girls, Ariana and Francis.
He had to wait until Profiler
to make the transition from screen villain to good guy. It may surprise
that off screen he is a real fun guy and infamous for his pranks on set.
In fact he has, as he had put it himself once, a "pretty interesting sense
of humor".
He keeps fit by working out, boxing
and "running after [his] kids". He usually spends the summer holidays with
his family at their house in Southern France. When he finds time in between
work, he ejoyes scuba diving, horseback riding, motorcycling, coaching
his girls' softball team, sketching, reading, and a good cigar.
Robert attended Hofra University
on a drama scholarship in the early 70´s , leaving shortly
before obtaining his degree to work as a waiter in New York City.
He took some classes at Julliard. Robert aggressively sought acting
work while he study with Stella Adler (who was also once a mentor
to Marlon Brando) and Actors Studio (with Lee Strasberg).
In 1978, his career got a boost
when he was cast in a leading role opposite Frank Sinatra in the
NBC movie "Contact on Cherry Street". After the movie
was completed, Davi remained in Los Angeles and appeared in the
miniseries "From Here to Eternity", while racking up
credits in such films as "Goonies", "Raw Deal",
"Wild Thing" and "Die Hard".
In the 1990s, Davi´s feature
films included "Predator II", "Cops and Robbersons",
"Wild Orchid II", "Son of the Pink Panther",
"Christopher Columbus: The Discovery", Dogfighters"
and many more.
His best known movie is "James
Bond: Licence to kill". Here he played the drug czar Franz
Sanchez. Not only in this movie Robert plays the "bad guy".
In the most of his movies he played "bad guys", but
his "bad guys" was not only bad.
Robert also appeared in TV-series:
"L.A. Law", "Hill Street Blues", "Wiseguy"
(3 or 4 episodes), "Charlie´s Angels" and more.
Now Robert get a chance to be
a "good guy".
He plays the FBI Agent Bailey
Malone in NBC´s primetime serie "Profiler". He
can show us his sensitive side.
"Bailey is compassionate,
dedicated and committed to truth and honesty, which I strongly
relate to," says Robert.

It really isn't surprising that
Robert Davi names Giacomo Puccini's Tosca as one of his favorite
operas. In fact, the great master of Verismo was ever present in
the Davi house. Born on June 26 1953 in Astora, Queens, he grew up in an
all-Italian family, but it was his mother Maria's love for music and old
movies that inspred him most.
