Biografie
Most people know DON JOHNSON as the man who breathed life into the character of Sonny Crockett during the amazing five-year run of Miami Vice. Don Johnson presented a look, style, and attitude that made him one of the most influential actors in the business.
It started years before in his last year of high school in Wichita, Kansas. Needing one more class to graduate, he chose drama and landed the lead role in West Side Story. Shortly thereafter, Johnson was awarded a full scholarship to the University of Kansas where he studied for two years before joining The American Conservatory Theater. A string of feature films followed, among them Return to Macon County Line, Zachariah, The Harrad Experiment and A Boy and His Dog.
In the summer '91, Johnson co-starred opposite Mickey Rourke as Marlboro in Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man. He also starred with Melanie Griffith in Disney's Paradise, based on the French film Le Grand Chemin. The following year, Johnson and Griffith teamed up to do Born Yesterday, also for Disney. During the same year, Johnson starred in the thriller, Guilty as Sin with Rebecca De Mornay. In 1996, he co-starred with Kevin Costner and his Nash Bridges sidekick Cheech Marin, in the box office hit Tin Cup.
The Don Johnson Company produced the highly acclaimed movie for TV, and Academy Award-winning actress Helen Hunt's first movie, In the Company of Darkness. In 1995, for the third year in a row, The Don Johnson Company produced the prestigious Washington D.C.- based Horatio Alger Awards special for CBS, and also produced a successful ABC dramatic TV series called The Marshal.
In March of 2001, Johnson finished executive Producing and starring in the CBS series Nash Bridges, which ran for six successful years at the top of the ratings.
Johnson was seen on the big screen starring alongside Danny Trejo, Robert DeNiro and his former cast mate Cheech Marin in Robert Rodriguez' action thriller Machete released through FOX. Continuing his comedy streak from When in Rome, Johnson was also seen in the third season of East Bound and Down.
