Movies
All my roles in movies that have huge budgets have just been walk on roles and not bigtime starring roles. I really try to believe what they say: "There are no small roles, just small actors" and every role I get is a blessing.

And Dedications: My God, my parents, and my teachers and mentors along the way who’ve taught me to be the better person I am today.
Quotes of Inspiration from Others:
Remember, rejection... is not failure.
--Christian L. Scott
Ben Calder: So if you’re scared, why do it?
Anna Foster: Because the things you’re scared of are usually the most worthwhile.
--Chasing Liberty, 2004
"Something you might want to consider is that: that safe life that loved ones lead, is probably, for them, a very good life. And, they want a very good life for you too, so, naturally, they would probably like you to follow, in a path that they’re more familiar with.
But as for me, I’m glad to see you’re out there chasing your dreams. And I hope you find them.
I think it’s very important that young people, (and old too), go out there, and do whatever they can that makes them happy. Makes them feel needed. Makes them feel useful.
And I wish you all the luck in the world."
--InspectorJury (Dave; Pine Village, Indiana)
"True happiness is far more important than income, IQ, any type of social status, or anything else in this life."
--"Life Outside the Fast Lane," Milwaukee
Personal quote: "I am obsessed with knowing who is who on set. Because in this town, the lowly extra could be your next boss, and the lowest PA can be the next big producer."

Who am I?
I am an actor performing since the age of ten. I love to be on set. I have been acting in Hollywood since early 2003 and full time half a year later. The upcoming 2007 season after the summer hiatus break will be the start of my FOURTH year! And yes...I AM on imdb! David Tran imdb.com link http://imdb.com/Name?Tran+David+M
Achievements and proudest moments...
My most proudest accomplishment acting wise is being so successful in the relationships I build and the friends I make and get to work with along the way.
I am blessed to work about once a month on the Emmy award winning team of General Hospital as an Orderly. I've pretty much been in scenes with all the main characters who work or visit the hospital.
People ask me the most, "What movies have you been in?" The answer is in my movies section. I try to be humble and not brag about them too much, but there they are.
Love of my Life...
I love doing movies, and it's where I want my career to eventually go. I want to be a big movie star. And I understand that it will cause me to give up mostly all of my privacy to fans, but I'm kinda doin' that already with everybody watching from outside the biz having an eye on you. So the practice is nice.
Other Tidbits and Trivia...
I misspell & typo often, IDK why. I have chronic "foot in mouth syndrome." It looks to be terminal=D. And I am a hopeless romantic. Yes, one of those.
I've finally created a mySpace just for people I meet and have met or will meet, and not just those that I might never meet ever.
Short term goals: To get on a motion picture shoot on a downtown LA rooftop at night.
Long term goals: Do more independents, have fun on student films, and become a bigtime movie star.

My maker. Even if only for an hour for lunch. I may already have and not known it.
Oh,... and anyone who went to Allen D. Nease who was my friend, even though I might not have verbally acknowledged it and took forgranted the chance to have appreciated you then, well, (we have a lot of catching up to do)...
And if you knew me from way back when, tell me your fondest memory of us, regardless of significance. What may not be of value to you may mean the world to me.
