Daniel Davis (born November 26, 1945 in Gurdon, Arkansas) is an actor, perhaps best known for his role of Niles the butler, in The Nanny. MacLeod's role on Mary Tyler Moore won him lasting fame, and two Golden Globe nominations, followed by another three nominations for his Love Boat work. His first regular TV role came in 1962 as Joseph "Happy" Haines on McHale's Navy. He also appeared as the villain in TV shows of the late 1950s and early 1960s.

His first movie appearance was in I Want To Live!, a 1958 prison drama. At about this time he changed his name, drawing "Gavin" from a cerebral palsy victim in a TV drama, and "MacLeod" from his Ithaca drama coach Beatrice MacLeod. After serving in the Air Force, he moved to New York City and worked at Radio City Music Hall while looking for acting work. Born as Allan See in Mount Kisco, New York, he grew up in Pleasantville and studied acting at Ithaca College, graduating in 1952.
