John William Ferrell, born July 16, 1967 in Irvine, California. Will Ferrell is the eldest child of Righteous Brothers keyboardist Lee Ferrell (and Kay Ferrell), but he wasn't the student clown during his time at University High School. Studious and somewhat quiet, Ferrell determined to leave his impression on the football field which is where he established an academic record for the highest number of field goals scored. Even within the more secluded environment of his suburban home, Ferrell displayed little of the outrageous, funny outbursts that would later help determine his career. His mother, who was interviewed by Esquire reported that her son was even-tempered and easygoing. "You are familiar with those tiny Matchbox cars? Will arrange his Matchbox cars on his own and be totally content. You'd askhim "Do you want to go Disneyland this morning?" or "You want your cars lined up?" and he'd think about it. Ferrell was not an ideal straight man but that's not to say he wasn't. A glimpse of Ferrell's comic abilities was seen every morning in high school when he disguised himself and announced the day's events over the loudspeaker system. Ferrell graduated from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles in 1986. He joined Delta Tau fraternity, and pursued a degree for sports journalism.
