Daniel Bonaduce is a radio personality, actor, television personality, and professional wrestler. Bonaduce is the son of veteran TV writer and producer Joseph Bonaduce (The Dick Van Dyke Show, One Day at a Time, and others). Bonaduce became famous as a child actor in the 1970s on the TV sitcom The Partridge Family. He co-starred as Danny Partridge, the wisecracking, redheaded middle son of the singing family band. Danny Bonaduce's career - as well as his life - has had some high highs and some low lows. Following the end of The Partridge Family, Bonaduce's late teens and twenties involved drug abuse and even a period of homelessness. Bonaduce went on to star in several other TV series later in life, including the VH1 reality show Breaking Bonaduce in 2005.

Throughout his life, he maintained he was born into a troubled family life, claiming he was subjected to terrible physical and emotional abuse at the hands of his father. He has been married to Amy Railsback since November 22, 2010. He was previously married to Gretchen Bonaduce and Setsuko Hattori.

In April 2022, Bonaduce shared on his social media that he was taking a break from his daytime radio show The Danny Bonaduce & Sarah Morning Show on Seattle-based KZOK to focus on his health journey. While he didn’t share many details at the time, he now told the outlet that his battle with the mystery illness initially began when his wife noticed something was off with his speech and that he had lost the ability to walk or balance. In June 2023, he underwent brain surgery after being diagnosed with a neurological disorder.
