Starting as an extra, McDonald gradually earned bigger roles and eventually wrote and directed several films. He has also appeared in both "Austin Powers" films.

He then moved into television, guest starring on shows such as "Seinfeld," "Ellen," "NewsRadio," "Just Shoot Me" and "The Drew Carey Show."

McDonald is single and resides in Los Angeles.
