Dan Bucatinsky husband Don Roos is a celebrated filmmaker in Hollywood. Don has been active as a filmmaker for more than 40 years.
Don Roos is a writer and director born on April 14, 1955, in New York, USA. After graduating, he attended the University of Notre Dame in Indiana and moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in television writing.

This led to a job with playwright Mart Crowley, the executive producer of Hart to Hart. He went on to write for various TV shows before his spec scripts led to feature film writing assignments.
His first significant film was Love Field in 1991, an interracial drama starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Dennis Haysbert. He is well known for his work writing strong and engaging female characters.
Roos directed several films, and his work has earned Independent Spirit Award nominations for actors Lisa Kudrow, Christina Ricci, and Maggie Gyllenhaal.
