Biographyby Lizzy

Johnny Depp came into this world on June 9th, 1963 as John Christopher Depp II. He was born in Owensboro, Kentucky in the United States. Owensboro is a small town in the mid-western U.S. on the southern banks of Ohio. His parents are John Christopher Depp Senior and Betty Sue. His father was a city engineer and his mother was a waitress in small coffee shops. Johnny says that he can remember sitting with his mother after her shifts and helping her count out all her tip change and money from that days work. He has always been very close to his mother and talks with great admiration about her and all her hardwork and persistence in striving to provide for the children as they grew up. He is the youngest of four children, two by an earlier marriage, to whom he has always been very close. His three siblings are 10 year older Danny (also known as DP and a screenwriter today), Debbie and Christie (today Christie Dembrowsky is Johnny’s personal assistant).

Johnny’s earliest childhood memory is catching lighting bugs, “creatures that are both fascinating and beautiful.” Early on, his family began to call him Johnny to differentiate him from his father in the home.

While he was still very young, Johnny “remembers picking tobacco in the fields with him and listening to him tell stories.” He has spoken of being nearly inseparable from him and when his grandfather passed away, Johnny was heart broken.
