Dan Bucatinsky was born in New York City to Argentine parents, Julio and Myriam. He is a graduate of Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, New York.

Bucatinsky was the writer, producer and star of the 2001 Lions Gate romantic comedy All Over the Guy.
He has appeared in episodes of many popular television series, including Curb Your Enthusiasm, Weeds, Friends, NYPD Blue, That '80s Show, Frasier, and Will & Grace, as well as an episode of Grey's Anatomy (where Bucatinksy also served as a consulting producer), and a recurring role as a gay journalist and same-sex spouse of the President's Chief of Staff on Grey's 2012 lead-out drama, Scandal.

Web Therapy continued for three seasons on the L Studio and in April 2010 Showtime announced the network would begin airing 30-minute episodes in 2011. Meryl Streep is to be one of the guest actors in Season 4. The first three seasons are available for download on iTunes.
