Charles Peckham Day, a talented individual, was born in the vibrant city of New York, where he spent his formative years in Middletown, Rhode Island. His parents, Mary Peckham and Dr. Thomas Charles Day, both being music teachers, instilled in him a deep appreciation for the arts. His mother, a skilled piano teacher, and his father, a professor of music at Salve Regina University, provided him with a rich cultural background.
As a multi-talented individual, Charlie is proficient in playing both the piano and guitar. His ancestry is a fascinating blend of Italian, Irish, and English heritage, reflecting the diverse cultural tapestry of the world.
Charlie's educational pursuits took him to Merrimack College in Massachusetts, where he majored in art history. After graduating, he began his acting career at the prestigious Williamstown Theatre Festival and landed small television roles. To supplement his income, he worked as a waiter and telephone operator for a telethon selling a Motown anthology. His big break came when he wrote a humorous blues song, which he performed at a cabaret night, earning him his first agent.
In 2005, Charlie's career took a significant turn when he pitched a home video he created with his friends Rob McElhenney and Glenn Howerton. This project eventually evolved into the hit television series "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia." Not only did Charlie star in the show, but he also served as an Executive Producer and one of the writers.
