- Donn Delos Berdahl was born in Los Angeles, California and grew up in the foothills of Northern California near Lake Tahoe. Playing any and all sports throughout his childhood, Donn attended Occidental College in Los Angeles, competing in basketball and golf for the university. While in school, he began acting in friends' film school projects at USC, Oxy, CalArts and many others. This led to attending the Brown/Baron Studio, where he completed a two year Meisner Masters program, along with meeting his wife Rosanna Iversen. Roles in Psycho Beach Party (LA Weekly Award and Drama-Logue Award for lead Comedy Performance), Double Impact, Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman and numerous commercials followed. Soon, Donn left the entertainment industry to pursue two other passions; wine-making, where he partnered to create the world's largest selling organic sulfite-free wine brands, selling the company in 2012 to a large conglomerate, and basketball officiating, which included two years in the NBA/D-League Developmental Program and thirteen years running as an NCAA Division I referee. Furthering his belief in organic farming, Donn is majority partner in the Pono Burger chain of gourmet grass-fed organic beef gastro pubs springing up throughout Southern California, and has re-entered the entertainment industry via executive producing The Better Half, acting in the film as well, along with creating/developing/writing a comic book series with Dark Horse Entertainment entitled The Forge.- IMDb Mini Biography By: anonymous
- SpouseRosanna Iversen(April 12, 1996 - present) (2 children)
- While watching Super Bowl XII, little boy Donn, being subjected to thirty Dallas Cowboys fans at a party his dad threw, decided to root for the Denver Broncos - losing 13 to 0 at halftime, he tried to switch loyalties, but Pops said 'You can't switch teams because you're losing...dude!' That simple sentence turned Donn into a fervent Broncos fan, so much so that he is a season ticket holder, traveling from his residence in Los Angeles to Denver for each home game, along with attending Super Bowl XXXII 20 years later to witness the Broncos first world championship in a victory over the Green Bay Packers.
- Donn is a scratch golfer, having competed in numerous top amateur events around the country, winning the North Coast Amateur and two club championships, while also qualifying for the United States Mid-Amateur Championship in 2008.
- Family is Donn's ultimate passion, which includes his beautiful wife Rosanna Iversen-Berdahl, the former Miss Massachusetts USA, whom he has been with since 1992, his two boys C.J. and Bryton, and his two dogs, Shamu and Dontae.
