For Hollywood newcomer Adam Brody, good things come in waves.
Born and raised in San Diego, California,
Brody spent his teen years living the California Dream: surfing, sunning and swimming. So when it became clear that there
was more to his ambition than a career as a professional surfer, he needed to make a decision on his future.
One day
while floating on his board off of La Jolla waiting for the next wave, he came up with a plan to go to Hollywood and turn
a longtime desire to act into reality.
After convincing his unwitting parents to allow him to attend college in Los
Angeles, Brody moved to Hollywood in January 1999. But instead of enrolling in academia, he enlisted the services of an acting
coach and started making the rounds.
A few months (and several part-time jobs) later, the first wave hit as Brody
began to land small roles in commercials, pilots, and soaps. Then, a year to the day after his arrival in Hollywood, came
the Big Kahuna -- the call that he had been cast in “Growing Up Brady” as the young Barry Williams. Though the
news came as a big surprise to his parents and 15-year-old twin brothers, Brody acknowledges that as his first fans, their
unwavering support and encouragement continue to motivate him
On the Oc Adam plays 'the not so popular, kind of a geek, weird kid!!!' called Seth!. Seth is not so popular
with the ladies!! and only dreams of being with his love (Summer). But when Ryan comes to town soon finds himself flaunting
his stuff at the parties he was never allowed to go to before and then two girls come at once for him!! Including his dream
girl Summer and the new girl Anna!! He was made to choose between them both and he chose Anna!! but little does he know that
Summer IS in love with him!
