Biography


Early life

Born David Ian Hewlett on April 18, 1968 in Redhill, Surrey, England and raised in Canada, Hewlett became a regular on the series ''Traders'' and '' and starred in the movie ''Cube''. He ran Darkyl Media, a web site design firm. He also founded Fusefilm.com, an internet community for filmmakers.
Career

Hewlett got his first computer in his mid-teens and became a self-described "computer nerd." While in high school in Toronto his acting career also began, starring in student films by Vincenzo Natali. He dropped out of high school in his senior year to pursue careers in acting and computing. He appeared in many low-budget horror movies, such as ''The Darkside'' and the minor cult favourite ''Pin''. He also guest starred in several television series. In 1996 he got one of his better-known roles, as Grant Jansky on Traders. In 2001 he moved with his wife, Soo Garay, to Los Angeles to further their acting careers. He and Garay divorced in 2004.
Hewlett is also a self-confessed science fiction fan, and is quoted as saying that ''Doctor Who'' (favorite Doctor: Tom Baker) is what first sparked his love for the genre[1] and that he made science fiction when he was younger in England on his 8 millimetre camera with friends. Hewlett more or less had his early dreams of working in science fiction made a reality when he first had a three-episode guest role on ''Stargate SG-1'' as the Stargate expert, Rodney McKay, which eventually grew into his current starring role on ''Stargate Atlantis''.
Due to the filming of ''Stargate Atlantis'' in Vancouver, Hewlett now lives in Washington, near the border of Canada, together with his fianceé Jane Loughman. Their engagement was announced on David's blog on 5 January 2007 [2]. The couple share their house with the rottweiler-terrier mix Mars, whom they adopted from an animal shelter and who is now one of the stars of David and Jane's new dark comedy feature film "''A Dog's Breakfast''".
He has three younger sisters. One of them, Moyra, worked with him as an Art Director in Hewlett's internet company Darkyl New Media.
Another sister, Kate Hewlett, who is also an actress, played Jeannie Miller, McKay's sister, in the ''Stargate Atlantis'' season 3 episode "McKay and Mrs. Miller". She also appears as Marilyn in his directorial debut, "''A Dog's Breakfast''".
In 2007, David appeared as a guest star in the first episode of the web series ''Sanctuary'' as Larry Tolson – a patient suffering from a form of psychosis who was shot and injured, and taken into custody by police as the suspect of homicide.
