Daniel was born and raised in Los Angeles, California until he escaped for college in 2001. He graduated from The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where he subsequently performed in plays at well respected theatres (The Walnut Street Theatre, Hedgerow Theatre, The Merriam Theatre) and with wonderfully creative & talented companies like Pig Iron Theatre Company & Philadelphia Theatre Workshop. He’s been back in Los Angeles pursuing a career in film & television since 2006 scoring roles on Days of Our Lives & The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, principal roles in national AT&T and Jeep commercials, and working on smaller independent films as well. Most recently, Daniel booked a lead voice over role for a ’top secret’ major video game set to be released in the Spring of 2012.

“Daniel Robaire creates a sly and stylish per-sonality for the young French king, Philip...”
-Philadelphia Inquirer on “The Lion in Winter”
“Daniel Robaire plays sexually ambiguous King Philip as a deliciously amoral teen...”
-Mark Cofta, Philadelphia CityPaper on “The Lion in Winter”
