Travolta was famed for playing Danny Zuko in the musical, Grease; a high school teen who finishes school falling in love with Olivia Newton John’s character, Sandy. Unlike his character, Travolta never actually completed high school, instead dropping out when he was just 16 years old.
He left early so he could focus on his acting career, but admitted that his peers didn’t really understand what he was doing. He loved playing basketball and football at school but missed out on it all to focus on acting.

Travolta was born in New Jersey on February 18, 1954. His neighborhood was filled with Irish-Americans who all lived just outside of New York City. He was the baby of his family and is the youngest of five children who also loved acting as much as he did.
His dad was Italian-American, while his mom was Irish-American, and he had a religious upbringing as a Catholic. However, he would later choose a different religion as an adult.
