July 18th, 2008 - Happy Birthday Chace Crawford!
By Allie | July 18, 2008
Christopher Chace Crawford (born July 18, 1985) is an American actor.
He’s 23!
Chace is best known for his role as Nate Archibald in Gossip Girl on The CW.
Chace Crawford grew up in Plano, Texas. His father is a dermatologist and his mother is a teacher. He has one sibling, a younger sister, Candice Crawford, who is Miss Missouri USA 2008.
Crawford played football and golf in high school. He graduated from Trinity Christian Academy in 2003. Although he worked as a model in Dallas, he never pursued acting. After high school, he moved to Malibu, California, to attend Pepperdine University. He struggled to identify a career path, vacillating between advertising, business and communications majors. Midway through his second year, Crawford’s mother encouraged him to pursue acting. He credits her for initiating this bold move. She states that “it was a practical move”, based on a career aptitude test he had taken in high school which revealed that he was best suited for a career in the performing arts. He was signed by the first talent agent that interviewed him, and then committed full-time to acting studies.
Crawford moved to Los Angeles to attend Pepperdine University and while there, he began acting. In 2006, Crawford appeared in Lifetime’s television movie Long Lost Son, in which he portrayed the son of Gabrielle Anwar’s character. He also starred alongside Steven Strait, Taylor Kitsch, Sebastian Stan and Toby Hemingway in Screen Gems’ horror/thriller The Covenant.
He is one of the leads in CW’s drama Gossip Girl, which premiered in 2007.
Crawford appears in two movies in 2008, Loaded, starring alongside Jesse Metcalfe and Monica Keena, and the independent movie She Lived with Haley Bennett that is to be released. He has also made a guest appearance on the TV show Family Guy in the episode “The Former Life of Brian”.
