'''Terrence Dashon Howard''' (born [[March 11]], [[1969]] in [[Chicago, Illinois]], [[USA]]) is an [[Academy Award]]-nominated [[United States|American]] [[actor]]. Having appeared in film and on television since the late [[1980s]], Howard had his first major role in the 1995 film ''[[Mr. Holland's Opus]]'', which subsequently led to a number of roles in films and high visibility among [[African-American]] audiences. Howard broke into the mainstream with a succession of well-reviewed television and film roles between [[2004 in film|2004]] and [[2005 in film|2005]], among them ''[[Ray (film)|Ray]]'', ''Lackawanna Blues'', ''[[Crash (2005 film)|Crash]]'', ''[[Four Brothers]]'', ''[[Hustle & Flow]]'', and ''[[Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005 film)|Get Rich or Die Tryin']]''.
*'''Delete''' per nom, but I don't think he ever really was all that noteworthy, maybe worth a mention in an article on independant wineries. Gotta feel for the guy, having his ISP display his bankruptcy notice. :) -[[User:Dawson|Dawson]] 02:27, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

* '''Comment''': Were they ever notable? Notability doesn't really go away imho, but Google has nothing on this name. — {{User:Adrian/zap2.js}} 02:31, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Howard was born in Chicago, but raised in [[Cleveland, Ohio]] to multiracial parents (both of whom were of mixed caucasian and [[African American]] descent), which he has said led to experiences of racism throughout his childhood [http://www2.oprah.com/tows/slide/200510/20051006/slide_20051006_350_106.jhtml], although his version of one highly publicized incident is disputed by his father and others [http://www.cleveland.com/living/plaindealer/index.ssf?/base/living/1131445881289970.xml&coll=2]. Howard was arrested in 2000 for allegedly assaulting a stewardess. Acting runs in his family - his great grandmother, [[Minnie Gentry]] is a stage actress from [[New York]]. Howard was raised in a [[Jehovah's Witnesses|Jehovah's Witness]] household, and attended [[Pratt Institute]], receiving a degree in [[chemical engineering]]. He was discovered on a [[New York]] street, quickly appearing in small roles on [[television]] shows like ''[[Family Matters (TV series)|Family Matters]]'' and ''[[Coach]]''.

His big film break came in his role in [[1995]]'s ''[[Mr. Holland's Opus]]''. He has continued landing television and movie roles and co-starred as "Greg Sparks" in the late-[[1990s]] television series ''[[Sparks (television)|Sparks]]'' with [[James Avery]] and [[Miguel A. Nunez Jr]]. Howard also appeared in [[Ashanti (singer)|Ashanti]]'s music video for her [[2002]] single "Foolish" and in [[Mary J. Blige]]'s video for "Be Without You".

Howard has a longstanding reputation in the African-American community as a solid acting talent who often portrays provocative, even frightening characters, such as Cowboy in ''[[Dead Presidents]]'' or the memorable Quentin in ''[[The Best Man]]''. Though he has recently gained popularity in films like ''[[Hustle & Flow]]'' (for which he also [[rapped]]), ''[[Crash (2005 film)|Crash]]'', and ''[[Four Brothers (film)|Four Brothers]]'', he stands out as a modest actor who insists on sharing the spotlight with his co-stars.
*'''Delete''' per everybody else. --[[User:AaronS|AaronS]] 18:49, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

In [[2005 in film|2005]], he received both [[Golden Globe]] and [[Academy Award|Oscar]] nominations for his role in ''[[Hustle & Flow]]''.

==Private life==
Howard was married to his former wife, Lori for 14 years and they have 3 children. They divorced several years ago and remarried in [[2005]], although they have since separated again. Howard has been romantically linked to former [[Miss Universe]], [[Dayanara Torres]] and "Hustle & Flow" co-star [[Taraji P. Henson]].

==Quotes==
"He’s like [[Gérard Depardieu]], another strong, physical man who can break your heart with sensitivity. He has this creepiness, but a sympathetic attractiveness, too.” - [[Thandie Newton]], Howard's co-star in ''[[Crash (2005 film)|Crash]]''.
