David Russell Leisure (born November 16, 1950) is an American actor best known for his role as Charley Dietz in the sitcom ''Empty Nest'' from 1988 to 1995 and fictional (and "lying") automotive "pitch man" Joe Isuzu in a series of North American television commercials for Isuzu from 1986 to 1990, and again from 1999 to 2001. ==Biography== Leisure was born in San Diego and attended Grossmont High School in El Cajon, California. He went on to attend Grossmont College also in El Cajon and then to San Diego State University. Among his smaller roles, Leisure appeared as the "First Krishna" in the 1980 film ''Airplane!''. He voiced The Castle in Fox's 1992 Halloween special ''Count DeClues' Mystery Castle''. In 1999, he made a brief but memorable appearance in ''10 Things I Hate About You'' as a high school soccer coach and detention monitor. More recently, falling back on his "Joe Isuzu" shtick, Leisure has been acting as a fictional and disreputable insurance lawyer in a series of commercials for various American personal-injury law firms. In different markets, different firms have licensed the footage and add in their own spokespeople and names. For much of the first quarter of 2009, Leisure appeared as Roger Wilkes on the CBS daytime drama ''The Young and the Restless''. As of July 2010, he is in a recurring role as Salem District Attorney Charles Woods on ''Days of Our Lives''. Leisure also provided the voice of Metus on the animated feature ''BIONICLE: The Legend Reborn''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Leisure」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
