Biography
A star of stage and screen, Matthew Morrison has been nominated for Tony, Emmy® and two Golden Globe® Awards. Morrison hosted and narrated the PBS special entitled “Oscar Hammerstein II - Out of My Dreams,” focusing on the Broadway producers’ life and career, which aired in March 2012.
Also in March 2012, Morrison was featured in a performance of Dustin Lance Black's play, “8” - a staged reenactment of the federal trial that overturned California's Prop 8 ban on same-sex marriage. The performance raised money for the American Foundation for Equal Rights.
Morrison has signed with Adam Levine’s 222 Records. Morrison released his self-titled debut solo album with Mercury Records in May of 2011.
Morrison studied musical theater, vocal performance and dance at New York University’s renowned Tisch School of the Arts. His big Broadway break came when he was cast as heartthrob ‘Link Larkin’ in the hit “Hairspray.” Morrison was later nominated for a Tony Award for his role in “The Light in the Piazza,” and received a Drama Desk Nomination for Outstanding Actor in a Musical for “10 Million Miles.” He also starred in the Tony-winning revival of “South Pacific” at Lincoln Center Theater in New York.
