Born in New York City in 1960, Duchovny is the son of Amram "Ami" Duchovny and Margaret "Meg" Miller. He has two siblings, an elder brother named Daniel and a younger sister named Laurie. His mother hails from Aberdeen, Scotland, while his father's heritage is Jewish. Duchovny's paternal grandfather was a Jewish emigrant from Berdychiv, Ukraine, and his paternal grandmother was a Jewish emigrant from Congress Poland (now in Poland).
Duchovny's academic journey began at The Collegiate School For Boys in Manhattan, where he graduated as head boy in 1978. He continued his education at Princeton University, where he graduated Phi Beta Kappa and summa cum laude in 1982 with an A.B. in English literature. While at Princeton, he was a member of Charter Club and received an honorable mention from the Academy of American Poets for his poetry. Duchovny later pursued a Master of Arts in English Literature from Yale University, where he initiated work on an unfinished Ph.D. thesis titled "Magic and Technology in Contemporary Fiction and Poetry."
Duchovny's career in the entertainment industry began with an advertisement for Löwenbräu beer in 1987. He subsequently played roles in films such as "Working Girl" (1988) and had a recurring role as Denise Bryson, a transgender DEA agent, in the series "Twin Peaks." He also hosted and played the narrator in the Showtime series "Red Shoe Diaries." Notably, he portrayed Rollie Totheroh in the biographical film "Chaplin" (1992) and played a role in the family film "Beethoven" (1992).
In 1993, Duchovny achieved widespread recognition when he began starring as FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder in the science fiction series "The X-Files." The show became a cult hit and one of The Fox Network's initial major successes. Duchovny's character, known for his belief in alien abductions, left an indelible mark on television. His dedication to the role earned him four Emmy Award nominations.
Duchovny's career also includes appearances in films like "Kalifornia" (1993), which co-starred Brad Pitt and
Juliette Lewis. He remained with "The X-Files" until 2001, later reprising his role for the series' ninth season in 2002.
