Adam Lamberg Bio (Age)
Adam Matthew Lamberg was born on the 14th of September, 1984. He shares the same birth month with celebrities such as the Duke of Sussex, Britain’s Prince Harry, who was born a day after him, and the Holes actor Jake M. Smith who was born on the same day as him.
He started out in the entertainment industry as a child actor. Although his career therein was short, it was a very successful one at most. In 1996, he clinched the role of Stewie Goodman in the film Radiant City and also appeared in the TV miniseries Dead Man’s Walk as WIll Carey.
While he won the hearts of one thousand and one fans with his stellar performances in films and TV shows, Adam Lamberg prefers the feeling of a live audience. As such, while his career lasted, he took the delight of being in Broadway shows and appeared in quite a number of them like I’m Not Rappaport in 1996. Besides acting, he is also athletic and enjoys playing tennis and basketball.
Lamberg appeared as the fourth and youngest son of Abraham Lincoln, Thomas “Tad” Lincoln in a recreation of the assassination of Lincoln, the television film The Day Lincoln Was Shot (1998). It was followed up by the family adventure film, The Pirates of Central Park in 2001 as Mike Bromback. The flick follows his character’s quest for self-discovery and also stars Jesse McCartney and Patrick Duffy. He also featured in the indie film Lonesome and in the comedy film, Max Keeble’s Big Move.
From 2001 to 2004, Adam Lamberg took on the performance that would become his signature in the acting industry. He portrayed David “Gordo” Gordon on the Disney Channel Original Series Lizzie McGuire which also co-stars Hilary Duff in the titular role, Lalaine Vergara as her other BFF, and Jake Thomas who played her annoying little brother. He won young fans’ hearts as Lizzie’s sarcastic, level-headed off-beat dork of a best friend through 2004. Lamberg also reprised his role in The Lizzie McGuire Movie (2003) but left the acting world shortly after.
He did two more acting jobs; When Do We Eat? (2005) as Lionel and the 2008 film Beautiful Loser as young Reggie before calling time on his acting career.
Where Is He Now?
He fell off the radar in 2008 and has kept a low profile since then. Although he seemed no longer destined for the screen, he found laudable success away from the camera. Adam had his eye on an entirely different career all along and was pursuing it while acting. The same year he last appeared on screen, he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Geography from the University of California, Berkley.
In 2014, he also earned a Master of Public Administration (MPA) from Baruch College. Thereafter, he found a job that he loves, as a developmental associate at the Irish Arts Center in New York City. He appears to flourish best when the spotlights are not on him.
Moreover, he has maintained a fairly strong social media presence. He is on Instagram, Twitter, and went live on Tumblr in January 2014. Although Adam Lamberg has left the shores of Hollywood, he constantly seeks intriguing and creative ways to make the most of life’s opportunities and time.
His Parents
Lamberg is the only child born to a retired, French Canadian public high school dance teacher named Suzanne and a Jewish father who is identified as Marc Lamberg. Adam considers himself a cultural Jew.
Is He Married To A Wife Or Gay?
The only relationship the former actor has in his profile was the one with the American singer Jessica Bridgeman. They lasted from 2005 to 2008. These days, he seemed to be so preoccupied with himself to have any room for someone else. That does not, however, translate into him not seeing anyone simply because he has given no indication of such.
Moreover, we are not in the best position to rule on his sexuality. Adam Lamberg has the final say and until he lets us into his world, the best we can do is speculate.
