Early life and education

[edit]

Daingerfield attended Murray State University in Kentucky on a tennis scholarship. He graduated with a degree in business and administration.[1][2]

Career

[edit]

Michael Daingerfield's first voice acting job was playing Ace Ventura on the animated series of the same name. According to voice director Dan Hennessey, Daingerfield did a few of Jim Carrey's ADR lines in the second Ace Ventura film (Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls), when Carrey was unavailable to do them himself.[3]

In 2006, Daingerfield wrote, produced and starred in, "Daingerfield", a short feature loosely based on his life.[4]

In 2007, Daingerfield founded On the Mic Training, a Vancouver-based, voice acting school where he and many other Vancouver voice actors train students in voice-over.[5]

In 2017, he was cast as the lead role of Gintoki Sakata in the Ocean dub of Gintama.

Personal life

In 2007, Daingerfield ranked third in Canada for Men's Singles over 35 tennis.[6]
