About Zac Efron in brief

Summary Zac EfronZachary David Alexander Efron is an American actor and singer. He rose to prominence in the late 2000s for his leading role as Troy Bolton in the High School Musical trilogy. He has since starred in the films New Year’s Eve, The Lucky One, The Paperboy, Neighbors, Dirty Grandpa, Baywatch, The Greatest Showman, Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, and Scoob! He has a brother, Dylan, and had, as he has described, a \”normal childhood\” in a middle-class family. He is of Jewish heritage, though he was raised in an agnostic household and did not practice religion as a child. He was recommended to an agent in Los Angeles by his drama teacher, Robyn Metchik. He was later signed to the Creative Artists Agency. He graduated from Arroyo Grande High School in 2006 and was then accepted into the University of Southern California but did not enroll. He also attended Pacific Conservatory of the Performing Arts, a community college located in Santa Maria, California, where he performed in shows such as Gypsy; Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up; Little Shop of Horrors; and The Music Man. His singing talents were disputed when it was revealed that his voice had been blended with Drew Seeley’s on the soundtrack, but Efrons clarified that the songs were written before he was cast and therefore did not suit his more baritone vocal range.
