Ryan Lane (nacido el 23 de noviembre de 1987) es un actor estadounidense. Comenzó su carrera profesional como actor sordo a la edad de diecinueve años, Lane es quizás mejor conocido por su interpretación de los Rojos de Cincinnati, el jardinero William Ellsworth Hoy , en el Documentary Channel de Dummy Hoy: A Deaf Hero , así como por su papel recurrente como Travis en la serie de ABC Family Switched at Birth, que le valió el Premio a la Diversidad RJ Mitte en los 2.013 Awards Media Access.
Primeros Años
Lane nació Ryan Thomas Lane, el 23 de noviembre de 1987 en Fullerton, California de padres oyentes William y Jill Lane. Lane nació sordo y, a las dos semanas de edad, fue diagnosticado con sordera nerviosa congénita. Tiene dos hermanas mayores, Kristyn (b. 1983) y Hayley (b. 1986), ambas oyentes. Sus padres se divorciaron cuando él tenía ocho años y se crió dividiendo su tiempo viviendo con su padre en Ontario, California, y su madre en Diamond Bar, California. Asistió a la escuela en el Distrito Escolar del Condado de Los Ángeles y se graduó de la Escuela para Sordos de California, Riverside (CSDR) en 2007.
Carrera
In 2007, Lane began his acting career when director David Risotto discovered a photograph of him in his football uniform on the wall at CSDR (some conflicting sources reporting it as a photograph in the CSDR yearbook).[1][2] Risotto had been searching for a young man who was deaf and could play baseball to portray Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame center-fielder William Ellsworth "Dummy" Hoy in the documentary Dummy Hoy: A Deaf Hero (aka: I See the Crowd Roar) and cast Lane, who he believed had both the perfect "look" and athletic abilities to portray the role. After altering his Mohawk hairstyle and learning to bat left-handed, Lane spent the spring of 2007 filming on location in Southern California, later re-shooting some key ballpark scenes in Evansville, Indiana in the fall of 2008.[1][3]
Lane's portrayal of Dummy Hoy led to a series of dramatic guest-starring roles on episodic television. In 2008, he guest-starred on the CBS crime drama Cold Case, portraying Andy Rierdan, a popular high school student whose murder is investigated in the episode "Andy in C Minor".[3] In 2009, he guest-starred on the Fox medical drama House M.D., portraying Seth Miller, a high school wrestler who hears explosions in his head in the episode "House Divided".[4] And in 2010, he guest-starred on the CBS medical drama Miami Medical, portraying Ethan, a patient injured under a collapsed balcony in the episode "All Fall Down".[5]
In 2011, Lane transitioned to roles in short films, appearing in lead roles in the science-fiction short Irving J. Koppermelt and the dramatic family short White Space.[6] That same year, he appeared in Jennette McCurdy's music video for the song "Generation Love".[7] In addition to his film and television roles, Lane has been one of the repertory players at the Deaf West Theatre in North Hollywood, California, appearing in stage productions of ASImprov, Charlie's Version and The "R" Word.[8]
In February 2012, Lane began a recurring role on the ABC Family drama Switched at Birth. On the series, Lane portrays Travis, a lonely and sometimes angry high school student who struggles to communicate with his hearing family at home and develops an unrequited romantic interest in the series lead, Daphne Vasquez (née Kennish), portrayed by Katie Leclerc.[9][10] In September 2012, Lane described the differences between his own life and his character's, stating "Travis' parents don't [sign]. My parents do. Travis doesn't have that, so in some ways we're different [...] But I'm embracing this whole [storyline] about his home life."[11]
In September 2012, it was reported that Lane was set to star in the feature film In Other Words, portraying an isolated young man who falls in love with a blind dancer.[12][13][14] Additional film credits include an appearance in the 2013 feature film, No Ordinary Hero: The SuperDeafy Movie,[15] as well as a cameo role in the 2014 feature film, Veronica Mars.[16]
Vida Personal
In September 2006, Lane sustained serious injuries in a dirt bike accident in Pismo Beach, California, which reportedly almost left him paralyzed. While trying to execute a jump, Lane fractured his lower spine and left femur, an injury which required a steel rod and screws to replace the broken section of his spine. His time spent recovering from his injuries, which required him to wear a body brace until January 2007, caused him to miss a significant amount of time from school, delaying his graduation from California School for the Deaf, Riverside until the fall of 2007.[1][2][17]
Prior to establishing a career in show business, Lane had expressed an interest in studying to be an auto mechanic at the Universal Technical Institute in Rancho Cucamonga, California.[1] In addition to his interest in motorcycles and mechanics, Lane is also proficient in the disciplines of baseball, football, snowboarding, swimming and wrestling.[18] In his free time, he has been involved with the charity Dogs for the Deaf, which trains shelter dogs to be assistance animals to the deaf and hard of hearing.[14]
