Adam Pascal was born on October 25, 1970 to mother Wendy in Bronx county of New York. He was raised in Long Island by his stepfather Mel Seamon and mother Wendy.

Pascal completed his primary education from the Syosset High school. His other batch mates included the now famous actress Natalie Portman, and other celebrities such as Idina Menzel and Judd Appatow.

Like most music loving youngsters of his time, Adam too was drawn towards rock music. He became a part of few bands, but soon his interest turned towards musical theatre.

The milestone of Adam’s career came in the form of the 1996 musical called ‘Rent’. Adam grabbed this opportunity after he was told about an audition by his friend. Adam was selected by the judges, and played the role of Roger Davis.

Adam made his acting debut through a less significant role in the 1999 comedy drama movie 'SLC Punk'.

His popularity fetched Adam another opportunity in the form of the musical called ‘Aida’. This show, which premiered in the year 2000, gave Adam a chance to work with the musical legend Elton John. The same year also saw the release of Adam’s debut album ‘Model Prisoner’ which was released by the music label ‘Sh-K Records’.

Adam participated in several musicals like ‘Chess’, ‘Hair’, and ’24 Hour Plays’ respectively in the first half of the 2000s. All these performances were done for charity.

In 2003, Adam appeared in another forgettable role in the film 'School of Rock'. The next year he starred in a musical 'Temptations' in which he played a pivotal role. The music of 'Temptations' was recorded live during the shoot, unlike most other musicals of those days.

Though Adam has been a part of various musicals, movies, and television shows, he will be best remembered for his role as Roger in the musical ‘Rent’. The success of the show also paved way for a movie with the same name, which released in 2005. Even in the feature film version, Adam reprised his role of the HIV positive musician.
