AKA:
Adrian Brody
Adrien was born in New York City, New York. As a child, he developed an interest in acting/performing and got his first job at the age of 12 as a magician for children's parties.

His mother encouraged Adrien's acting interest. He enrolled in acting classes and attended both the American Academy and High School of the Performing Arts.

Adrien also has a background in photography due to his mother's job in photo journalism. They would often travel together when she was on assignment.

Although Adrien's fame seemed to have spawned from his award





… More winning performance in The Pianist, the now youngest best actor Oscar winner ever has a long resume of TV and films, but his first high profile films include The Thin Red Line and Spike Lee's Summer of Sam. Adrien also co-starred with veteran TV actress Mary Tyler Moore in the short-lived TV series Annie McGuire.

When Adrien won best actor at the 75th Annual Academy Awards, he gave a very tearful acceptance speech and acknowledged his good friend and neighbor who was off fighting the War in Iraq. His speech was the longest speech of the night. He even had to shush the orchestra for trying to cue him that his time was up. He received an applause from the audience for doing that.

    Great actor. I have seen in a couple of movies, including The Village, King Kong, and The Pianist and he just seems like the perfect guy for each of his roles. He really knows how to act, and he really loves it, you can tell it by the way he makes such amazing roles. I really like his sytle, because it is very original.

    Adrien Brody is so hot and also a great and talented actor! hide show

    Adrien Brody is such a great actor and he totally is number one in my book. He has starred in big movies like King Kong and The Village. I love the way he makes his characters or people he has to act out because like in the Piano Man, he lost thirty pounds just so it would make it more realistic so the audience can buy it or get into it. I also love how he looks so imperfect and not like anybody else. Being imperfect means being perfect in my eyes. Adrien Brody is such a great actor!
