Freddie James Prinze (born March 8, 1976) is an American actor, perhaps best known for his leading roles in teen-oriented films.

Early life

Prince was born in Los Angeles, California, the son of Katherine Elaine Cochran (a real-estate agent) and Freddie Prinze, an American actor and comedian who died in 1977, after Elaine left him and filed a restraining order against him. Prinze was just 10 months old at the time. His father's death was originally termed a suicide but later ruled an accident, as he was under the influence of Quaaludes. Prinze's paternal grandfather was German and his paternal grandmother was Puerto Rican; he was raised a Roman Catholic and embraces his Puerto Rican heritage .

Prinze grew up in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Puerto Rico. He learned about Spanish and Puerto Rican culture from his paternal grandmother's Puerto Rican family. He showed an interest in acting from an early age and attended La Cueva High School in Albuquerque, which he's described in interviews as a painful experience. Having an interest in drama, he became a member of the Albuquerque Children's Theatre and the Duo Drama Company. His interest in acting also sparked his first job, a puppeteer at a local nursing home. Here, Freddy spent hours critiquing the art form of entertainment. As one elderly man put it later for reporters," He (Freddy) was a natural. He breathed life into those puppets." After graduating high school in 1994, he moved to Los Angeles and began auditioning for television roles.

Subsequently, Prinze had leading roles in Wing Commander (1999), Down to You (2000), Boys and Girls (2000), Head Over Heels (2001) and Summer Catch (2001), most of which were generally disliked by critics and had moderate box office performances .
