John Joseph Travolta (born February
18, 1954) is an American actor, dancer, and singer. Travolta first became known
in the 1970s, after appearing on the television series Welcome Back, Kotter and
starring in the box office successes Saturday Night Fever and Grease. Travolta's
acting career declined in the early 1980s and continued to deteriorate for the
rest of the decade. His career enjoyed a resurgence in the 1990s with his role
in Pulp Fiction, and he has since continued starring in Hollywood films,
including Face/Off, Ladder 49, and Wild Hogs. Travolta was nominated for the
Academy Award for Best Actor for Saturday Night Fever and Pulp Fiction. He won
the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor - Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for his
performance in Get Shorty.

Early life
Travolta, the youngest of six
children,[1] was born and raised in Englewood, New Jersey, an inner-ring suburb
of New York City. His father, Salvatore Travolta (November 1912 – May 1995),[2]
was a semi-professional American football player turned tire salesman and
partner in a tire company.[3] His mother, Helen Cecilia (née Burke, January 1912
– December 1978),[2] was an actress and singer who had appeared in The Sunshine
Sisters, a radio vocal group, and acted and directed before becoming a high
school drama and English teacher.[4] His siblings, Joey, Ellen, Ann, Margaret,
and Sam Travolta, have all acted.[4] His father was a second-generation Italian
American and his mother was Irish American;[5][6] he grew up in an
Irish-American neighborhood and has said that his household was predominantly
Irish in culture.[7][8] He was raised Roman Catholic, but converted to
Scientology in 1975.[6][9]
Career
Early career
After attending Dwight Morrow High
School,[10] Travolta moved across the Hudson River to New York City and landed a
role in the touring company of the musical Grease and on Broadway in Over Here!,
singing the Sherman Brothers' song "Dream Drummin'".[11][12] He then moved to
Los Angeles to further his career in show business.
Travolta's first California-filmed
television role was as a fall victim in, Emergency! (S2E2), in September
1972,[13] but his first significant movie role was as Billy Nolan, a bully who
was goaded into playing a prank on Sissy Spacek's character in the horror film,
Carrie (1976).[14] Around the same time, he landed his star-making role as
Vinnie Barbarino in the TV sitcom Welcome Back, Kotter (1975–1979), in which his
sister, Ellen, also occasionally appeared (as Arnold Horshack's mother).[15] The
show aired on ABC.
'70s stardom
Around this time, Travolta had a
hit single entitled "Let Her In", peaking at number ten on the Billboard Hot 100
chart.[16][17] In the next few years, he appeared in two of his most noted
screen roles: Tony Manero in Saturday Night Fever (1977) and as Danny Zuko in
Grease (1978).[4] The films were among the most commercially successful pictures
of the decade and catapulted Travolta to international stardom.[18] Saturday
Night Fever earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor.[19] At age
24, Travolta became one of the youngest performers ever nominated for the Best
Actor Oscar.[20] His mother and his sister Ann appeared as extras in Saturday
Night Fever and his sister Ellen appeared as a waitress in Grease. Travolta
performed several of the songs on the Grease soundtrack album.[21] In 1980,
Travolta inspired a nationwide country music craze that followed on the heels of
his hit film, Urban Cowboy, in which he starred with Debra Winger.[22]
Downturn
After Urban Cowboy, Travolta
starred in a series of financial and critical failures that sidelined his acting
career. These included Perfect, co-starring Jamie Lee Curtis, and Two of a Kind,
a romantic comedy reteaming him with Olivia Newton-John. During that time he was
offered, but turned down, lead roles in what would become box office hits,
including American Gigolo[23] and An Officer and a Gentleman, both of which went
to Richard Gere.[24]
Resurgence
In 1989, Travolta starred in Look
Who's Talking, which grossed $297,000,000, making it his most successful film
since Grease. Travolta continued to the two sequels Look Who's Talking Too
(1990) and Look Who's Talking Now (1993). But it was not until he played Vincent
Vega in Quentin Tarantino's hit Pulp Fiction (1994), for which he received an
Academy Award nomination, that his career was revived.[25][26][4] The movie
shifted him back onto the A-list, and he was inundated with offers. Notable
roles following Pulp Fiction include a movie-buff loan shark in Get Shorty
(1995), an FBI agent and terrorist in Face/Off (1997), a desperate attorney in A
Civil Action (1998), a Bill Clinton-esque presidential candidate in Primary
Colors (1998),[4] and a military detective in The General's Daughter (1999).
2000–present
Travolta also starred in
Battlefield Earth (2000) based on a work of science fiction by L. Ron Hubbard,
in which he played the leader of a group of aliens that enslaves humanity on a
bleak future Earth. The film received almost universally negative reviews and
did very poorly at the box office.[27] Travolta played Mrs. Edna Turnblad in the
remake of Hairspray, his first musical since Grease.[28]
Personal life
Travolta was in a relationship with
actress Diana Hyland, whom he met while filming The Boy in the Plastic Bubble;
Hyland died of breast cancer in 1977.[29]
Travolta married actress Kelly
Preston in 1991. The couple had a son, Jett (1992–2009).[30] Their daughter,
Ella Bleu, was born in 2000. On May 18, 2010, Travolta and Preston announced
that she was pregnant with the couple's third child,[31] later confirmed to be a
boy.[32] Their son, Benjamin, was born on November 23, 2010 in Florida.[33]
Travolta and Preston have regularly
attended marriage counseling; Travolta has stated that therapy has helped the
marriage.[34]
Travolta is a certified private
pilot and owns five aircraft, including an ex-Qantas Boeing 707–138 airliner.
The plane bears the name Jett Clipper Ella in honor of his children.[35] Pan
American World Airways was a large operator of the Boeing 707 and used Clipper
in its names. The 707 aircraft bears the marks of Qantas, as Travolta acts as an
official goodwill ambassador for the airline wherever he flies. His $4.9 million
estate in the Jumbolair subdivision in Ocala, Florida, is situated on Greystone
Airport with its own runway and taxiway right to his front door.[36]
On November 24, 1992, Travolta was
piloting his Gulfstream N728T at night on top of a solid undercast when he
experienced a total electrical system failure while flying under instrument
flight rules into Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. During the
emergency landing he almost had a mid-air collision with a USAir Boeing 727,
attributed to a risky decision by an air traffic controller.[37]
On September 13, 2010, during the
first episode of the final season of her talk show, Oprah Winfrey announced that
she would be taking her entire studio audience on an 8-day expenses-paid trip to
Australia, with Travolta serving as pilot for the trip. He had helped Winfrey
plan the trip for over a year.[38]
Travolta has been a practitioner of
Scientology since 1975 when he was given the book Dianetics while filming the
movie The Devil's Rain in Durango, Mexico.[39] After the 2010 Haiti earthquake,
joining other celebrities in helping with the relief efforts, Travolta flew his
707 full of supplies, doctors, and Scientologist Volunteer Ministers into the
disaster area.[40]
Son's death
On January 2, 2009, Travolta and
Preston's son, Jett, died while on their holiday vacation in The
Bahamas.[41][42] A Bahamian death certificate was issued, attributing the cause
of death to a seizure.[43] Jett, who had a history of seizures,[44] reportedly
suffered from Kawasaki disease as an infant.[45] On September 24, 2009,[46]
Travolta and Preston confirmed speculations that their son had autism and
suffered regular seizures.[47] They made their statements while giving testimony
after a multi-million dollar extortion plot against them regarding the
circumstances of their son's death. After a mistrial, [48] Travolta dropped the
charges.[49] Travolta has credited his family and faith in helping him survive
the tragic death of his son, and in moving forward with his film career.[50]
