Dan Benson grew up in a small town in Springfield, Missouri. Shortly
after moving to Florida at the age of 15 Dan went to an actor, and
model scouting hosted by a local talent manager. Several days after
meeting with this manager he was introduced to Los Angeles managers
(Hines and Hunt entertainment) scouting local talent in the area. He
and his two brothers were chosen to be represented and they flew out to
California where they began working in numerous national commercials,
feature films, and bit parts on TV.
Dan got his big break when he landed the role of "Friend #1" on Disney
Channel's "Wizards of Waverly Place". After a few months Dan had helped
create an identity for his character and eventually became an integral
part of the story as a character named "Zeke". Dan's latest film
"Hanna's Gold" is a family adventure film where he got to show that he
is not just a hilarious supporting actor, but also has what it takes to
carry a film as the lead character "Luke".
