Nathaniel Marvin "Nat" Wolff (born December 17, 1994) is an teen actor, singer-songwriter, composer, and keyboardist. Nat was best known for his role as himself on the Nickelodeon series The Naked Brothers Band, which also stars his younger brother; the series was created by the boys' mother, Polly Draper.
Career
Nat Wolff is the lead singer/songwriter and keyboardist for The Naked Brothers Band which he founded together with his brother Alex who is the drummer. He stars in the Nickelodeon television series of the same name. Based on a comedic interpretation of the brothers' lives, the TV series began as The Naked Brothers Band: The Movie, an independent documentary/mockumentary film written, directed, created, and executive produced by Polly Draper. Nat kept putting signs on his door: "I want to be a child actor!", but Draper refused to at first because she wanted her kids to have a normal life. So to please him, she let him film his own sitcom, called, Don't Eat Off My Plate. Then Draper changed her mind and let him become a child actor, and decided to make a movie about her kids' band, which they formed in pre-school with their best friends.
Nat gained notice in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks when he held his birthday party at a fire station and performed a self-written song, "Firefighters" (later retitled, "Rosalina" for The Naked Brothers Band: The Movie). He has performed Off Broadway in Getting Into Heaven with Cooper Pillot, written by Draper. He also starred in The Heart of Baghdad. Nat said in a New York Times article in 2007, "I always loved it; I love the Beatles—I know every Beatles song—I wanted to be like them." "It's all based on reality," Nat continues. "It's not like work. It's things we might say or do or want to say or do. I like the feeling of creating something that wasn't there. If we have another season, I'm totally getting ideas."
Personal life
Nat was born in Los Angeles, California. He is the son of actress, screenwriter, producer, and director Polly Draper and jazz pianist-composer-bandleader Michael Wolff. His younger brother is actor/drummer Alex Wolff. His family is culturally Jewish. In his free time he likes to play basketball, write music and play with their family dog E.T.
