Early Life
Jason Ritter was born Jason Morgan Ritter on February 17, 1980, in Los Angeles, California. He is the son of actorsJohn RitterandNancy Morgan, and he has two siblings, Tyler and Carly, and a half-sister named Stella (whose mother is John's second wife, "Wings" starAmy Yasbeck). Sadly, John died of an aortic dissection in September 2003 after collapsing on the set of "8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter."
In a 2010 interview with "Huffpost," Jason said of his father's death:
"I went downhill for a while. It was interesting because [his death] happened right when I signed on to shoot 'Joan of Arcadia.' My character dealt with his tragedy by making fun of it all the time. I don't know if that had anything to do with it, but I started to do that myself. And it's not the healthiest way to deal with it."
Jason's first onscreen appearance was in the petting zoo scene in the opening credits of John's show "Three's Company." Ritter attended Santa Monica's Crossroads School, whereSimon Helbergwas one of his classmates, and the two roomed together at New York University. Jason earned a BFA in Drama from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, and as a college student, he trained at the Atlantic Theater Company. He later spent time in London, studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
