Born in Philadelphia, Don was raised in Pitman, New Jersey; he attended Quaker schools - Westtown School (Pennsylvania) and Earlham College (Indiana) - and trained as an actor at The Drama Studio in London, England. During his many years in New York, Don divided his time between a busy commercial career and stage work - he appeared in Moisés Kaufman's acclaimed "Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde". As host of ESPN's "Men's Journal", Travel Channel's "Weird Travels" and CNBC's "Ushuaia", global adventure became a trademark. Don now explores the storied undergrounds of the world's great urban centers as the host of Cities of the Underworld (2007), The History Channel's premiere series. He lives and works in Los Angeles.
