When I went to Broadway in the mid-sixties, everybody was trying to emulate Al Pacino and Robert De Niro and here I was kind of the wholesome 'All-American Boy' from the mid-west with the big toothy smile; so I kind of stood out - a rare kind of a thing for that kind of venue. -John Davidson

I wanted to be a minister when I first went to college. You see, I was very shy as a kid, and couldn't figure out how to communicate with people. I guess I was trying to get people to listen to me, but I thought I was interested in religion. I realized very quickly that I just wanted to move people and be the center of attention.
