He is best known for his work in the feature films ''Employee of the Month'' (2006), ''Without a Paddle'' (2004), ''Let's Go to Prison'' (2006), and ''Hit and Run'' (2012), the last of which he also wrote and directed, and the MTV practical joke reality series ''Punk'd'' (2003). He portrayed Crosby Braverman in the NBC comedy-drama series ''Parenthood'' from 2010 to 2015. == Early life == Shepard was born in Milford, Michigan, in suburban Detroit, Michigan. He is the son of mother, Laura LaBo, who worked at General Motors, and father, Dave Robert Shepard, Sr. (deceased), who was a car salesman.〔 His parents divorced when he was 3 years old.〔 Shepard's mother ended up growing a huge business by the time he was in high school.〔 She worked car shows with traveling events at race tracks. She started as a janitor on the midnight shift at General Motors, then worked in fleet management at the proving grounds where all the cars in Milford are designed, then hosted hospitality days for all the GM family members, eventually moving into public relations at an ad agency.〔 She went back to GM, ending up owning four shops that managed publicity events for magazine journalists. From the age of 14 to 28, Shepard worked for his mother on the road, going from racetrack to racetrack.〔 For about 2 years, Shepard had a stepfather who was an engineer on the Corvette.〔〔 Shepard's mother has been married four times—Shepard said he's had three stepfathers. According to Shepard, his mother named him for the rich playboy Dax (Diogenes Alejandro Xenos), in Harold Robbins' novel ''The Adventurers''. He has an older brother, David Shepard, who lives in Oregon,〔 and a younger half-sister, Carly Hatter,〔 whom he cast in his 2012 film ''Hit and Run''. Shepard has said that he was raised in Milford,〔 although he lived in a lot of places in suburban Detroit, growing up primarily in Walled Lake, Michigan. He graduated from Walled Lake Central High School in 1993 before enrolling in The Groundlings school.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://groundlings.com/performers/performer-details.aspx?performerID=380 )〕 After attending Santa Monica Community College and West Los Angeles College, Shepard transferred to UCLA, graduating with a magna cum laude degree in Anthropology. He had a deal with his mother that if he went to college she would pay his rent.〔 Shepard has said he wasn't interested in child-acting per se. He was a class clown in school, had a sense he was funny, and wanted to do stand-up. Although he had friends who did stand-up in Detroit, he was too scared. Shepard thought if he moved to California "that commitment would force him to do it."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dax Shepard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
