Master carpenter and set builder for 23 years at Aero Mock-Ups in North Hollywood, CA. Many TV commercial and movie sets featuring airline interiors were built by him.

As a child, Danny taught himself piano, and thus later became a talented instrumentalist for several Los Angeles-area bands, including Swami Lushbeard, The Ooks of Hazzard, Ketchup Soup, Good-Lookin' Bastards, and The Big Daddy Danny Blues Jam. He was also proficient on other musical instruments, including electric guitar and accordion.

Danny also appeared in or worked on several movies: Near Dark (1987 - Role: Biker in bar); Lady in White (1988 - Art Department Carpenter); Suburban Commando (1991 - Special Effects Technician); The people Under the Stairs (1991 - Role: Drive-by biker, uncredited); World's Finest (2004 - Art Department Construction Foreman).

Unfortunately, Danny's bio info and filmography are listed with another Danny Kopel's photo and net worth at Net Worth Post. Nothing seems to convince them that the credits belong to my brother, and not the person pictured.
