David Nelson (actor)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

David Nelson (born October 24, 1936, in New York City, New York) is an actor, director and producer, and the son of famed bandleader/TV actor Ozzie Nelson and singer Harriet Hilliard. David was the brother of singer Ricky Nelson, and they both appeared on the family TV show, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, in the 1950s and 1960s.

In time, Ricky and David attempted separate film careers and found moderate success in several big-budget 1950s films. By 1966, however, the Nelson sons were hard-pressed to find a large popular following. Ricky ventured into country music, where he had sporadic success until his 1985 death in a plane crash, and David moved into production, working mainly in commercials and low-budget features.

David Nelson has been married twice. His first wife was June Blair (1961 -- ?). They had two children Daniel and James and divorced years later (the year is unknown). In 1975, David married Yvonne O’Connor Huston. They have no children. David Nelson is step-father to Yvonne's daughter Teri.
