About Me

---

Originally from Boston area and then Northern California, Vincent Duvall- DePasquale spent most of his early days landing in a new town or city or traveling in between. After being voted most humorous, making the baseball all-star team, the dean’s list and some other, well, less academic adventures, he imagined and realized a partial scholarship to the University of California at Berkeley from the juvenile delinquent cells of Sonoma County. He went on to study business at UC Berkeley and film and theatre at UCLA. While at Berkeley he was a member of Sigma Alpha Mu and the UC Taekwondo team. After winning the Shakespeare Award at UCLA, he went on to Oxford, England (Baliol College) where he studied classical acting with members of the RSC, LAMDA and RADA and UK professionals. In his first professional stage production, he appeared as a lead in Acapulco, written and directed by Steven Berkoff at the Odyssey Theater in Los Angeles.

Doing crime shows since his first SAG job on Midnight Caller in the 90s, he has worked with, Jon Hamm, Kevin Costner, Nathan Fillion, Alec Baldwin, James Cahn, Charlie Hunnam, Anthony LaPaglia, Patricia Arquette, Lawrence Fishburn, Paul Guilfoyle, Viola Davis, Tim Roth, Craig T. Nelson and many others in this genre as well as prolific and iconic directors. Not necessarily in any order. In addition to appearing in a wide range of indie feature films and shorts, he has also appeared in sitcoms and family entertainment. 

While primarily and actor/writer, Duvall has produced several features, countless shorts, a few plays and the last truly indie film fest DWF at the Chinese Theater. He also was an operations manager at Dodger Stadium and franchised his own Seattle Best Café. When not acting he is writing, attempting stand-up and travelling.

Vince Duvall has been a prominent figure in crime television since his first SAG job on "Midnight Caller" in the 90s. Over the years, he has showcased his talent alongside renowned actors such as Kevin Costner, Jon Hamm, Nathan Fillion, Alec Baldwin, James Caan, Charlie Hunnam, Anthony LaPaglia, Patricia Arquette, Laurence Fishburne, Paul Guilfoyle, Viola Davis, Tim Roth, and Craig T. Nelson. His versatility extends beyond crime dramas to sitcoms and family entertainment, as well as a variety of indie feature films and shorts. Vince is also a producer, contributing to DWF, the last truly independent film festival, held annually at the Hollywood Chinese Theater since its founding in 1998.

Originally from Boston and later San Francisco, Vince honed his craft by studying film and theatre at UCLA and business at UC Berkeley. His exceptional talent was recognized early on when he won the Shakespeare Award at UCLA, which led him to Oxford, England. There, he studied classical acting with professionals from the UK film industry, the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), the London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art (LAMDA), and the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA).

Vince's stage career began with a leading role in "Acapulco," written and directed by Steven Berkoff at the Odyssey Theater in Los Angeles. In addition to his acting career, he has managed Dodger Stadium and franchised Seattle's Best Coffee in the greater LA area. Outside of acting, Vince is a writer, stand-up comedian, and avid traveler.

 AS A WRITER: Vincent began story writing in grade school with a little tale about a seventh grader who has visions. He spent several months of that year convincing faculty that it was not autobiographical – and the visions weren’t about them. He continued to write all through his education being published in local periodicals of San Mateo County and the east bay in Northern California. Studying Business at UC Berkeley, Duvall found his way into the writing program there as a necessary balance against the exacting demands of Macro Economics. His best story INSTITUTION was conceived from the jail cell of the campus.  In Los Angeles, he helped start what has become an immensely popular website for adult XXX stories and began writing plays and screenplays. Cut to: several years later… Duvall- DePasquale has written over ten features. He has had deals with companies like CinePro for scripted feature material, many options on feature projects and some script doctoring. He has sold three feature spec scripts and is very proud to have many ideas "co-opted" in submission to larger filmmaking companies.

Mine the marrow of a feeling line.
