Life and career
[edit]Povall was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1947, and raised there and in Denver and Mexico City. Fluent in Spanish and Nahuatl,[1] he began his acting career in Mexico in 1969, under the stage name David Estuardo ('Estuardo' being the Spanish form of his middle name 'Stuart').
Between 1969 and 1986, he appeared in over 20 Mexican films and television series, alongside the likes of Jorge Rivero, Ignacio López Tarso, Julissa, Claudio Brook, Pedro Armendáriz Jr., Sara García, and Irán Eory. He also had a co-starring role in the Clint Eastwood/Shirley MacLaine Western Two Mules for Sister Sara (1970), and played John the Apostle in the Biblical epic Jesús, nuestro Señor (1971).
In the late 1980's, Povall returned to the United States and began a second career as a voice actor, primarily in English-language dubs of anime.[2]
Povall currently works as a writer, and is married to his Mexican wife Victoria.[3]
