The record lists John de Lancie as American actor (born 1948).
John de Lancie was born at Philadelphia in 1948. His recorded nationality is United States. He trained at Juilliard School and Kent State University.
This generation broke the studio mould - lighter cameras, location shooting, and directors who claimed authorship of the finished film.
He worked as actor, film director and television director.
Among his best-known works are Star Trek: The Next Generation and My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. The screen flattens effort: a performance that took months reads as a few unhurried minutes.
