The SPARK Award – David Epley (AKA Doktor Kaboom)
Doktor Kaboom is the creation of actor/comedian David Epley.
David grew up expecting to be a research physicist. Then a biomedical engineer. Then a mathematician, an astrophysicist, a chemical engineer, a marine biologist, etc, etc, etc.
So, of course, he became an actor.
For over 30 years he has written, directed, and performed original comedy shows throughout the US, and around the world. Outdoor festivals and street performance were his primary venues of choice, with an occasional stage show thrown in for good measure. In 2006 David decided to bring science back into his life. As Doktor Kaboom, he combined his passions for science and theatre, creating a dream come true that has opened countless doors and led to some of the most fulfilling work of his career.
Teaching, inspiring, and empowering the minds of our youth, and reminding their parents to be an active part of the equation. How could one’s life work be any more rewarding?
A firm believer in community service, David is a veteran of the U.S. Army and a former firefighter and EMT. He now calls Seattle home, where he lives with his wife (and director) Annie Lareau and their two wonderful daughters, both in their early twenties.
About the SPARK Award: The SPARK Award is an annual award given for outstanding contributions to Science Education.
