Adam Shankman
Choreographer, actor, dancer, director, and judge
His passion is extreme
He was raised up in Jewish descent, and had a well off family. He dropped out of Juiliard for musical theatre. Which turned for the best for him. He's become very successful with every production he was involved in such as A walk to remember, Bringing down the house, 2007 version of hairspray, and much much more.
Step up revolution
One of the many movies he's known for choreographing
Adam with the other two judges of SYTYCD
Hairspray
His remake of hairspray was a huge success in his career.
To wrap it up..
There isn't a lot of how he got to where he is today but he made it and made his footprints. He is also openly gay. And currently a judge for SYTYCD.
