																			DATE OF BIRTH: 8th December 1978 KEY FACTS: Ian 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.     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. A talent manager visiting a client on the set spotted Somerhalder's amazing look 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.  Ian is now a prominent movie star and tipped to be a face of the future.  Let's hope we see a lot more of his gorgeous bod in the future!
