David Michael Haskell was born on June 4, 1948, in San Joaquin County, California. He trained at
the College of Marin and at Carnagie-Mellon University, where he studied acting, voice, dance and mime. He is widely
known for his double role in 'Godspell' as both John the Baptist and Judas Iscariot. His other projects include K-9,
Body Double, Seems like Old Times, the original Godspell stage production, and guest starring roles on such shows as Home
Improvement, Mork and Mindy, and in Batman: The Animated Series as the voice of Billy. Sadly, David had passed away on August

an incredible actor and he will be missed. He is gone, but not forgotten.
