David Reardon - Fame Charatcers
David Reardon,
Tall,
blond, athletic with blue eyes is his early 30s David Reardon comes from a big
Southern family. In “Consequences” he tells Elizabeth he was always fighting
with his Brothers when he was growing up.
In his 20s he was estranged from his Father, Tom Reardon and they didn’t see each other for 6 years. In this time David got married and divorced. David father had wanted his son to go into business with him but that would have meant giving up his acting career and this drove a wedge between father and son. Tom tried reaching out but David ignored his calls until fellow teacher Gregory Crandall died in “A Tough Act To Follow”, then he finally agreed to meet and talk with his father.
He lives alone in an apartment in New York City. He’s an actor but struggling to make ends meet so turns to teaching acting at the High School for the Arts. He has a good sense of humour and is passionate about his work, doing his best to help the kids. Frequently the kids go to him for advice.
He is seen first in the episode “And The Winner Is?” although he had recently started working at the school before we see him. In his first episode while fighting for Bruno to be in charge of the production of his own play, David revealed that he likes to shake things up a little from time to time.
He enjoys most sports and plays handball in the school basement to stay in shape, as seen in “Beginnings”. In “Love Is The Question” we learn he was on his college water polo team and we see him help Leroy and Danny coach a Basketball team in “Ending On A High Note”.
He has a passion for TV Trivia as seen in “Star Quality” and writes poetry as seen in “Friendship Day”.
David’s last episode is “Indian Summer” where we discover Holy has a crush on him. We don’t see or hear anything about the character again after that.
David Reardon can be seen in the following episode:
Your Own Song
Hail To The Chief
Consequences
A Way of Winning
Catch a Falling Star
Indian Summer

Valerie Landsburg Discusses "Turn To Me" Trivia of the Week
On Turn To Me:
"As you know I became the ballad singer of the show, there were a lot of songs. I listen to this and I can hear my voice maturing as I learned to work in a recording studio. This was great with a hand held camera going around while I sang, The high notes were hard to reach I can actually sing it now better I think. My voice was still very young I was 25. It’s always funny to think this was always lip synching. I learned the best way was always to sing full out while the playback was going. Here is how it worked. You got a demo tape on Monday with a lyric sheet. Tuesday you recorded a temporary track, they would finished all the instrumentation without you and then Thursday you recorded and Friday you shot it. What an education."
