Dakota Daulby (born October 10, 1994) is a Canadian film and television actor, producer, director, and screenwriter.
Daulby was born in Vancouver, British Columbia. He spends his time between his home town of Maple Ridge and Vancouver. Daulby has began to make an expansion into the American market, with work on notable TV shows like "Falling Skies" and "Wayward Pines". He discovered his love for acting at a very young age and proceeded to enrol as a student in New Image College. He started his two-year acting program under the department head and Gemini Award winning actor Phil Granger and completed the program with honours in September 2014.
Daulby got his first break after landing the lead role in the award-winning short film "Why Does God Hate Me?", written and directed by Joel Ashton McCarthy. The film would be featured at the prestigious New York Film Festival as well as at numerous film festivals across North America and around the world. The film has since gone an amase more than 1 million views on YouTube, and develop a dedicated fan following. Daulby has stated "It was hard to understand the importance and meaning that this film would have for so many people, at such a young age. It's just really nice to be a part of something that people can find hope in".
Daulby would follow that up by an actor role in the Lifetime film "Girl Fight" by director Stephen Gyllenhaal. Having sited Gyllenhaal's son, Jake Gyllenhaal as a major influence on his career - Daulby found extra special nostalgia in the experience.
In the following year, Daulby's hard work paid would pay off after landing the starring role in the feature film "The Woodcarver," alongside John Ratzenberger. He would again find himself tapped to co-star as the corky love interest in the Leo Award-winning big screen adaptation "Sitting On the Edge of Marlene" alongside Paloma Kwiatkowski and Suzanne Clément from the short story "The Trouble With Marlene" by award-winning Canadian author, Billie Livingston.
