Biography

Gangly, reedy-voiced actor Dave Willock indulged in amateur theatricals while attending the University of Wisconsin. In the early '30s, he appeared in vaudeville in a comedy singing act with Jack Carson; later on, he showed up in various small parts in Carson's Hollywood films. Making his own screen debut in 1939's Good Girls Go to Paris, Willock showed up in innumerable films as servicemen, bellhops, elevator boys, and college kids. In the latter stages of his career, Willock could be seen in the commercials of Stan Freberg; he played tap dancer Ann Miller's husband in Freberg's famous Great American Soup ad and was heard as a voice artist in a number of animated cartoon series. David Willock was also familiar to TV devotees for his co-starring stint with Cliff "Charley Weaver" Arquette on an early L.A.-based improvisational comedy program, and for his regular roles on such series as Margie (1962) and Lorenzo and Henrietta Music (1976). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
