}}Kenneth Davitian (born June 19, 1953) is an American actor and comedian, who is best known for his role as Borat's producer Azamat Bagatov in the 2006 comedy film Borat.[1]

Early life and education

Kenneth Davitian was born on June 19, 1953 to an Armenian-American family in Montebello,[2] California. His father, a Soviet soldier during World War II, was captured by Nazi forces. He was placed at a Armenische Legion camp in Stuttgart. After the end of the war, he emigrated to the United States through the efforts of George Mardikian. Davitian worked in his father's waste management company.[3][4] He graduated from Whittier College.[5]

His teenage idol was Burt Reynolds, who greatly influenced his choice of becoming an actor.[6] Davitian would go on to play in a film which also featured Reynolds, titled Pocket Listing.[7]

Davitian is fluent in both Armenian and English.[8]

Restaurant ventures

Davitian founded a restaurant in 2003 called The Dip, which was located in Los Angeles.[9] His son Robert used to run his baseball-themed hot dog restaurant The Infield in Sherman Oaks, which boasted a hot dog, conceived by Charlie Sheen, called the "Charlie Sheen Dog with Tiger Blood".[10]
