ACTOR David Koechner has had a successful career, starring in more than 170 films and television shows.

Koechner is a well-known comedian and his roles in The Office, Anchorman I and II, and Thank You For Smoking have made him a household name.

What is David Koechner’s net worth?

David Koechner got his start in the 1995 film Now… Or Never as the role of Jay before moving on to one-time appearances on TV series including The Jamie Foxx Show (1996), Something So Right (1996), and Mad About You (1997).

Koechner now has a net worth of $4million stemming from a lengthy list of credits he has amassed over nearly three decades.

In addition to nearly 200 acting credits, Koechner was a writer on four TV series, one short, and was the executive producer for an episode of The Naked Trucker and T-Bones Show (2007), three episodes on Funny or Die Presents (2010), and Full on Koechner (2013).

What role is David Koechner most known for?

Koechner’s role as Todd Packer on The Office and Champ Kind in both Anchorman films earned him national attention as a comedic Hollywood personality.

He appeared in less than 15 episodes over nine seasons of The Office, but Koechner said he became instantly recognizable as his character Champ Kind.

“After I did one or two episodes of that show it became the second thing everyone put when they referenced me,” he told CBS News in 2013.

“Over seven years, I think I only did 14 episodes — like two a year. That character is so memorable.”

However, Koechner is first and foremost a comedian and he spends his free time working at comedy clubs or spending time with his wife and their five children.

Early in his career, Koechner relocated to New York City to be a TV personality on Saturday Night Live. He was on the show for one season from 1995 to 1996 and he has said he sometimes misses that time in his life.

“SNL is an exciting place,” he told Breeze TV in 2016. “There’s something new every week that’s going to be unexpected.

“You’re going to create something that week that will only exist that week with that group of people and that time, which is a lot of fun.”

What is David Koechner working on now?

Koechner is currently filming Diamond in the Rough, set to be released this year. His role in the film has yet to be released.

He is also in pre-production of a new TV series, Rock Me, set in Austin, Texas where a disgraced singer returns after his fall from fame and will be taking on the role of Antoine St. Poupon in Izzy Lyon: The Unspun Truth.

The newest roles bring into focus his belief in performing every day and putting a majority of his focus into his career.

Koechner told Breeze TV his advice to young actors is, “You’ve got to get your stage time in … You should write every day, you should read every day and you should perform every day.

“I guess the other thing I’d say is, you’ve got to remember, it’s show business. There’s only one person that’s in your way, and it’s you.

“People like to complain about so and so got the part, but it’s really up to you.”
