James Byron Dean will forever be remembered as one of the few truly iconic American figures of the 20th century. Since Dean's tragic death in 1955, his popularity has grown greater with each new generation. His name continues to appear in the lyrics of rock, country, and pop music throughout the world. Dean came from humble beginnings, but he left behind a rich legacy still cherished to this day. Countless books, magazines, documentaries and films have been introduced in an effort to explain why his legend continues to grow. He immersed himself in theater while attending college at Santa Monica City College and UCLA. His first on-screen paying gig was a Pepsi-Cola commercial in 1950. Unable to find steady and meaningful work in Hollywood, he moved to New York City. He joined the prestigious Actors Studio, performed on Broadway, and appeared in numerous television programs. Legendary director Elia Kazan recognized Dean's raw talent and chose him for the lead in East of Eden. From there Dean went on to star in perhaps his most iconic film, Rebel Without a Cause. Dean's career was tragically cut short when he died in a car crash shortly after filming Giant. He was only 24 years old. Shortly thereafter a legend was born. Dean is the only actor to have posthumously received two Academy Award nominations for Best Actor. Because of his brilliant and groundbreaking performances on television and in film, James Dean continues to fascinate each new generation long after his tragic death.
