Daniels was born in Athens, Georgia; he grew up in Michigan, where his father ran a local lumberyard.
Daniels is perhaps best known for his roles in Terms of Endearment, Gettysburg, Arachnophobia and Dumb & Dumber. Although primarily a dramatic actor, ironically some of Daniels' most memorable scenes are from the comedy Dumb & Dumber. They involve his character, Harry Dunne, getting his tongue frozen to an icy pole, and another scene where he suffers a painful bout of diarrhea and realizes only too late the toilet he has used does not flush.
Daniels currently resides in Chelsea, Michigan, where he is Founder and Executive director of the regionally-acclaimed Purple Rose Theatre Company, a not-for-profit professional theatre company. He wrote, directed, and starred in Escanaba in da Moonlight and Super Sucker with Purple Rose Films. He was inducted into the Michigan Walk of Fame on May 25, 2006 in Lansing, Michigan.
He has been married to his high school sweetheart, Kathleen Treado, since 1979, and they have three children: Benjamin (b. 1984), Lucas (b. 1987), and Nellie (b. 1990). Daniels married Treado on Friday the 13th because he wore the number 13 on his baseball uniform.
