Biography

Adam Scott's origins can be traced back to Santa Cruz, California, where he was born to Anne and Dougald Scott, his devoted parents. He is the youngest sibling in a family of three, with two older siblings, Shannon and David, who have played a significant role in shaping his life.

Adam has often spoken fondly of his brother David, describing him as a carbon copy of himself, but with a far more cerebral approach, having inherited the intellectual prowess of their parents, both of whom are retired educators. This unique bond has undoubtedly had a profound impact on Adam's own development.

Adam's educational background is marked by his attendance at Harbor High School, where he laid the foundation for his future endeavors. Furthermore, he is an alumnus of the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles, California, class of 1993, which has undoubtedly played a significant role in his journey to becoming the accomplished actor he is today.
