Matthew Steven LeBlanc was born on July 25, 1967(age 54 years) in Newton, Massachusetts. His mother, Patricia, was an office manager; his father, Paul LeBlanc, was a French-Canadian mechanic. His father is of Acadian descent and his mother is of Italian ancestry.

Career

LeBlanc moved to New York at the age of 17 to pursue a career in modelling, but he was told he was too short to be in the industry. His acting career began after a woman invited him to accompany her to an audition, where he ended up getting signed by her manager. Although he had booked commercials and television and film roles before Friends, he was reportedly down to his last eleven dollars before landing the role of Joey Tribbiani.

Matt LeBlanc found success as the dimwitted but lovable Joey Tribbiani on Friends; he played this character for 12 years — 10 seasons of Friends and two seasons of Joey. Friends were wildly successful, and LeBlanc, along with his co-stars, gained wide recognition among viewers.

Following the cancellation of Joey, LeBlanc announced that he would be taking a one-year hiatus from acting on television, which eventually turned into five years.

From 2011, LeBlanc appeared as a fictionalized version of himself in Episodes, a television series about an American remake of a fictional British television series. The series is written by Friends co-creator David Crane and his partner Jeffrey Klarik. At the 69th Golden Globe Awards in 2012, LeBlanc won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a television series, musical, or comedy, and was nominated for an additional four Primetime Emmy Awards.

In February 2012, LeBlanc appeared in the second episode of the eighteenth series of Top Gear, where he set the fastest lap time in the “Star in a Reasonably Priced Car” segment in a Kia Cee’d.
