Dana Carvey

(April 2, 1955- )

Dana Carvey is best known for his work on Saturday Night Live where his most popular movie, Wayne's World (1992), had spun off from. Carvey started his career as a stand up comic until 1981 when he appeared with Mickey Rooney in the short-lived sitcom "One of the Boys." Dana Carvey's first appearance in film came in 1981 when he played a minor role in Halloween 2 (1981). In 1984, Carvey had a memorable cameo in the famous mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap (1984). Carvey's first major film appearance came in 1986 with Tough Guys starring along side Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas.
