Born in Germany to a father of American descent and a mother of British origin, D'Amico's early life was marked by a unique blend of cultural influences. Raised in the United Kingdom, he was immersed in the rich theatrical traditions of the British stage, where he first took to the boards in a 1977 revival of the classic musical Oliver!.
Following this early start, D'Amico made the bold decision to relocate to the vibrant city of Los Angeles in the early 1980s, where he spent a brief but formative period soaking up the sun-kissed atmosphere of the City of Angels. However, it was not long before he felt the call of the British stage once more, and he eventually returned to his roots, resuming his career on the British stage with renewed passion and purpose.
Throughout his distinguished career, D'Amico has established himself as a master of his craft, particularly in his portrayal of Americans on British television. His ability to bring an authentic, nuanced understanding of American culture to his roles has earned him a reputation as one of the most versatile and talented actors of his generation.
