大卫芬奇1963年出生于Oregon的Ashland.当他8岁时就对导演影片有着浓厚的兴趣.
当70,80年代"星球大战"席卷美国大陆时,大卫芬奇也象其他美国人一样,受到了电影艺术的强烈震撼.在看过了"Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)"后,他下定了决心,投身于电影事业.

为了取得工作经验,他先是在一家动画公司打工,18岁时,芬奇加入了由乔治鲁卡斯领导的著名的"光魔工业"(ILM).他在ILM工作了四年参与了"Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983)"和 "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)"这两部影片的制作.

在离开了ILM后,他开始从事电视广告的摄制工作,并为Aerosmith,Madonna以及Paula Abdul 这些导演过Music Videod.但是,电影才是芬奇的理想.经过多年的积累,大卫芬奇于1992年获得了导演"异形(Alien)"系列第三集的机会.但是,这部影片并不为影评人所看好."Alien3"的失败使他又回到了制作广告和Music Video的老路上. 失败的打击使他的信心遭受了前所未有的打击,这使他怀疑自己是否还有机会实现自己的理想.

但是,命运总是青睐有准备的人.1995年,大卫芬奇和布拉德皮特,摩根弗里曼合作的黑色片"Se7en"的成功打消了他所有的顾虑.他的努力和才华终于得到了肯定.《七宗罪》是一部黑色的悬疑恐怖片,反映了人们对于社会问题的极端看法.在影片末尾凯文史贝西和布拉德皮特的精彩对白堪称经典.而最终当凯文史贝西平静的对布拉德皮特说 "I'm envy and you wrath" 时 ,更是表现了对信仰的怀疑和质问:当信仰具体到个人时,它还有客观标准和依据吗?

"Sen7en"的成功,成就了摩根弗里曼和凯文史贝西这两位演技派巨星,也确立了大卫芬奇的黑色,逆向的导演风格.它将大卫芬奇推向了一线导演的位置.

1999年,《角斗俱乐部》的上映更是将大卫芬奇的导演才能得到了充分的发挥.可以说,"fight club"不仅仅是一部影片,而且是一部哲学.深刻的揭露了病态价值观对人类思想的奴役.它的出色剪辑和制作为它赢得了2000 Oscar 的多项提名.

正象他本人所说的那样:"I have demons you can't even imagine."
