Conrad Dunn

Conrad Dunn is an American actor who grew up in Los Angeles and trained at East Los Angeles College and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and studied with Stella Adler in New York. A casting director who had seen him onstage asked him to read for Francis Soyer, nicknamed Psycho, in his first feature, Stripes (1981). For about ten years he acted as George Jenesky, playing Nick Corelli on Days of Our Lives across seven seasons, a pimp who became a romantic lead. Returning to his own name, he worked widely in Canadian and American film and television, often as a villain: a juror in We the Jury (1996), a mobster in two CBS miniseries based on Mario Puzo's The Last Don (1997 to 1998), and detective Saul Panzer for two seasons on Nero Wolfe (2001 to 2002). He also directed stage work, and in 2019 the Valley Theatre Awards named him best actor in a play.
