Paul Dawber is an Australian stage, film & television actor and is probably most known for his 1987 stint on Sons and Daughters. He has also appeared on popular Australian police dramas such as Blue Heelers, Stingers and, more recently, City Homicide and Satisfaction. Dawber also appeared on Prisoner, Neighbours and The Flying Doctors. As a charismatic leading actor and leading man, Paul Dawber commands an odd mixture of working-class charm, exuberant street-wise sexuality and aristocratic arrogance. He has proved himself capable of handling any type of role - from comedy to adventure, from Television Drama to Shakespeare. Probably no relation to Mork and Mindy actress Pam Dawber.
