David O’Shea was a NYC taxi driver for seven years in the 70's and 80's before moving to Los Angeles where he has worked as an actor, tax accountant, FEMA worker, and Santa Claus. Each of these jobs has inspired him to write the stories he tells in theatres and cabarets throughout L.A.

His one-man show “Taxi Stories” was called a “gut-busting and deeply moving testament” of a “now by-gone New York when the city’s danger and unpredicatability were part of its charm.”

He was a featured teller in last years “L.A. Storytelling Festival.” His most recent TV and film credits include “The Office” and “Semi-Pro.”

He is currently looking for WWII veterans who would like to have their memories recorded and copied on CD for free (as a tribute to Mr. O’Shea’s late father, a veteran of Patton’s 95th Infantry). If you know anyone who would be interested, please contact Mr. O’Shea.
