Born into a family of unique entertainers, Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock, had the opportunity to develop a grassroots understanding of the nuances of live performance as he watched both his father and grandfather achieve tremendous success in the world of professional wrestling. Watching them perform throughout the country gave Johnson a primary education that was unlike any other. With a move to Pennsylvania in his latter teenager years, Johnson focused his natural athletic abilities on football, attracting the attention of the University of Miami. With a full football scholarship in place Johnson joined the powerhouse football program and won his first National Championship with the team in 1991. Playing again for the National Championship in 1992, Johnson closed out his illustrious football career by competing for a third National Championship in 1995 against the University of Nebraska in the Orange Bowl.
Upon graduation, Johnson capitalized on his inherent drive and discipline to turn his passion for entertainment into a life-changing career. Following in the footsteps of his grandfather and father, Dwayne quickly utilized his past life lessons to develop the iconic character "The Rock." Johnson performed to over 10 million fans a week on television as well as both domestic and international live audiences that reached in excess of 70,000 people. Johnson consistently sold out venues such as The Houston Astrodome, Madison Square Garden and Toronto Sky dome. As the character "The Rock," Dwayne achieved unprecedented success, becoming a New York Times best-selling author for his autobiography entitled "The Rock Says" as well as a platinum recording artist for his World Wrestling Entertainment compilations CD performing with such artists as Grammy Award winner Wyclef Jean.
In 2011, Johnson renewed his relationship with the WWE, bringing "The Rock" persona to a new generation of wrestling fans. He was the host of "WrestleMania XXVII" and the main event for WWE's November 2011 "Survivor Series" at Madison Square Garden. In April 2012, Johnson will be the star attraction at "WrestleMania XXVIII," in his hometown of Miami, Florida
Pursuing his desire to expand his entertainment mediums, Johnson transitioned from television to film where he played the Egyptian man/god, The Scorpion King, in the 2001 blockbuster "The Mummy Returns," leading to his first starring role in "The Scorpion King" in 2002. The success of that film led to subsequent leading roles in "The Rundown" (as a bounty hunter out of his element in South America), "Walking Tall" (as a returning Persian Gulf War hero who protects his hometown from drug dealers) and "Gridiron Gang" (as a compassionate, yet tough, corrections officer inspiring a team made of teenage inmates). He also gave an acclaimed standout performance in the ensemble hit, "Be Cool," as a colorful gay Samoan bodyguard. He lent his voice as astronaut Captain Charles Baker to the animated feature "Planet 51" and returned to family comedy, starring as an arrogant professional hockey player who constantly crushes the dreams of children and is forced by Fairyland to don a tutu, magic wand and fairy wings as "The Tooth Fairy." He also made his highly anticipated return to action in November 2010 with George Tillman's feature "Faster."
A Celebrity Cabinet Member for The American Red Cross, Johnson has served on the National Advisory Board for The Make-A-Wish Foundation and the National Spokesperson for After School All-Stars (formerly The Arnold Schwarzenegger Youth Foundation). The Giving Back Fund recognized him in 2006 as one of the top 30 celebrities who made the largest public charitable donations and, in 2008, the United States Congress, the Joint Leadership Commission and the United States Congressional Award Foundation recognized Johnson with the prestigious Horizon Award, given to an individual in the private sector who has contributed to expanding opportunities for all Americans through their own contributions, and has set exceptional examples for young people through their successes in life.
