Daniel was born to a pair of robots in the Virgo Supercluster at the outer limits of the Milky Way Galaxy near a star known locally as the Sun on a planet where the food is quite good. To survive captivity he transformed into a turtle and escaped slowly. He graduated from Hampshire College where he studied Theatre and Dance Performance and Mysticism. His senior seriocomic monologue In Stitches brought return audiences and won him a grant to continue work on stage. When his college advisor offered to write him a recommendation to Harvard University he decided comedy was the smarter option. He has since performed at such adored venues as the Krystallpalast Variete (Germany), The Cape Town International Comedy Festival (South Africa), The Wellington Fringe Theatre Festival (New Zealand), and the Academy of Music, Northampton (Massachusetts). He played the lead role in the short film Eugene that won Best Student Film at the Rhode Island International Film Festival, stood in for Breckin Meyer in Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, and was spotted eating popcorn in The Invention of Lying. He is currently a monk.

Watching him is like watching live animals.
