Mini Biography
The son of a massage therapist and a building contractor, Somerhalder was born and raised in the small southern town of Covington, LA. Boating, swimming, fishing and training horses filled much of his recreational time growing up, as did the school drama club and performing with the local theater group. With his mother's encouragement, at age 10 he began a modeling career that took him to New York each summer. By junior high, he opted to put modeling on the back burner and focus more on sports and school. A few years later, when the opportunity to model in Europe arose, Somerhalder grabbed it, embarking on an enriching path of work, travel and study that took him to cities including Paris, Milan and London. At 17, he began studying acting in New York, and by 19 had committed himself to the craft, working with preeminent acting coach William Esper. His fate was sealed while working as an extra in a club scene in the feature film _Black & White(1999)_. A talent manager visiting a client on the set spotted Somerhalder in a crowd scene of 400 and immediately signed him for representation. Happy to be anchored in New York, Somerhalder spends much of his time studying acting, writing and practicing yoga. His recreational interests include water and snow skiing and horseback riding.
Facts: Began modeling at the age of 10, modeled for Calvin Klein, Dolce and Gabanna, Gucci, Versace and Guess.
He doesn't like to talk about his modeling career because of the impressions people might get of him as being just another pretty face.
Ironically, the first actor to be cast as one of the survivors in "Lost" (2004). Has said in an interview he was planning to buy a home in Hawaii when filming the hit show "Lost" but couldn't after his character was killed off in the show.
He didn't graduate high school because he traveled to Europe to pursue his modeling career.
If he hadn't become an actor, he would have chosen a career in marine biology, writing, or advertising.
Ian and his siblings own a pizza parlor in Idaho.
He has a brother, Robert (Bob), and a sister, Robyn. Their parents divorced when he was thirteen.
Played varsity soccer and baseball.
