Adam Gabriel Garcia (born June 1, 1973 in New South Wales,
Australia), is a movie actor. He is often credited as Adam
Garcia.
Garcia is the co-founder of a dance group, the Tap Dogs, which
would later gain international acclaim.
Despite the fact that he has starred in such movies as Coyote
Ugly and others, it was not until 2004, when he participated as
rock star Stu Wells in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen that
he gained mainstream fame as an actor.
Garcia had for long been an accomplished stage actor before the
release of that movie. He played Doody (which is, in fact, John
Travolta's character of "Danny") in the West End's version of
Grease in London. He also played another Travolta character,
Tony Manero, in the stage version of Saturday Night Fever, which
ran from 1998 to 1999 in London.
Garcia was nominated for multiple awards during his stage acting
career. His career transition into a film actor began in 1997,
when he played Jones in Wilde, a movie about the life of
novelist Oscar Wilde.
Garcia's father is from Colombia.
