Patrick Swayze

Early life Patrick Swayze was born on August 18, 1952, in Houston, Texas, the second child of Patsy Yvonne Helen (nae Karnes; born 1927), a choreographer, dance instructor, and dancer, and Jesse Wayne Swayze (1925–1982), an [6] [7] [8] [9] engineering draftsman. Swayze was raised Roman Catholic. He had two younger brothers, actor Don [6] [10] Swayze (born 1958) and Sean Kyle (born 1962), and two sisters, Vickie Lynn (1949–1994) and Bambi. He was a sixth cousin once removed of news commentator John Cameron Swayze, and a relative of noted Texas [11] Revolution soldier Henry Karnes. Until the age of twenty, Swayze lived in the Oak Forest neighborhood of Houston, where he attended St. Rose of [12] [13] [13] [14] Lima Catholic School, Oak Forest Elementary School, Black Middle School, and Waltrip High [13] School. During this time, he also pursued multiple artistic and athletic skills, such as ice skating, classical ballet, and acting in school plays. He played football for his high school and was hoping to receive a football scholarship for college until a knee injury ended his career. He studied gymnastics at nearby San Jacinto College for two years. In 1972, he moved to New York City to complete his formal dance training at the Harkness Ballet and Joffrey ballet schools.

Career Swayze's first professional appearance was as a dancer for Disney on Parade.

Swayze's breakthrough role came with his performance as dance instructor Johnny Castle in the 1987 filmDirty Dancing, alongside hisRed Dawnco-star, Jennifer Grey. Dirty Dancing, a coming of age story, was a low-budget film that was intended to be shown in theaters for one weekend only and then go straight to video, but it became a surprise hit and achieved massive international success. It was the first film to sell one million copies on video, and as of 2009, it earned over $214 million worldwide and spawned several alternative versions, ranging from a television series to stage productions to a computer game. Swayze received a Golden Globe Award nomination for the role and also sang one of the songs on the soundtrack, Swayze and Paula Abdul at the 1990 Grammy Awards "She's Like the Wind", which he had originally co-written with Stacy Widelitz for the filmGrandview, U.S.A.The song became a top ten hit and has been covered by other artists.

Both of his legs were broken and he suffered four detached tendons in his shoulder. Filming was suspended for two months, but the film aired in 1999.

In 2001, he appeared inDonnie Darko, where he played a motivational speaker and closet pedophile, and in 2004, he played Allan Quartermain inKing Solomon's Mines.

Personal life

Swayze was married to Lisa Niemi from June 12, 1975, until his death. The couple first met in 1970 when Swayze was 18 years old. Niemi, 14 years old at the time, was taking dance lessons from Swayze's mother. [27] Swayze and Niemi had no children. In a 2008 interview, Swayze stated that Niemi was the inspiration [28] for his 1987 hit song, "She's Like the Wind".

As a reaction to his father's death at age 57 from a heart [29] attack in 1982, Swayze began to drink heavily. In 1989, Swayze said, "I've always felt there was something different in there (my personality), but I was scared to look for fear I wouldn't find anything. That's the reason I got into Buddhism, took est training, was into therapy, into Scientology, into Transcendental Swayze and his wife, Lisa Niemi, arrive at the 1989 Academy Meditation. I was trying to support that side of myself. Awards ceremony But, you know, in Texas there isn't much support for [30] [29] that part of you." His sister Vicky committed suicide by drug overdose in 1994, leading him to seek treatment for alcoholism. After initial recovery, he temporarily withdrew from show business, retreating to his ranches in California and Las Vegas, New Mexico, to breed Arabian horses. His best-known horse was Tammen, a chestnut [31] Arabian stallion.

Swayze, who was a certified pilot with an instrument rating, made the news on June 1, 2000, while flying with his dogs in his twin-engine Cessna from Van Nuys, California to Las Vegas. His plane developed a pressurization problem, causing Swayze to make a precautionary landing on a dirt road in a housing complex in Prescott Valley. The plane's right wing struck a light pole, but Swayze was unharmed. He locked the cockpit, left the aircraft in the subdivision, and obtained a ride—with his dogs—from a passing vehicle, allegedly in order to telephone the authorities. According to the police report, witnesses said that Swayze appeared to be extremely intoxicated and [32] asked for help to remove evidence—an open bottle of wine and a 30-pack of beer—He madefrom the crash site. himself unavailable to police for several hours. It was later determined that the alcohol in question was not in the

cabin, but stored in external storage compartments inaccessible in flight and that the probable cause of the accident was Swayze's physical impairment due to the cumulative effects of carbon monoxide from engine exhaust by-products, carbon monoxide from heavy tobacco use, and the loss of an undetermined amount of cabin [33] pressurization.

Illness and death Swayze was diagnosed with Stage IV pancreatic cancer in late January 2008, and underwent chemotherapy and treatment with an experimental drug Vatalanib to cut off the blood supply to the tumor at the Stanford University [34] Medical Center. On March 5, 2008, a Reuters article reported that Swayze "has a very limited amount of disease, [35] and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far." Swayze's doctor confirmed that the actor was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but insisted he was not as close to death as reports suggest. Despite repeated [36] tabloid claims that his death was imminent, Swayze continued to actively pursue his career. Specifically, Swayze was diagnosed with a type of pancreatic tumor called intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm. In early May 2008, it was widely reported in a number of tabloids that Swayze had undergone surgery to remove part of his stomach after the spread of the cancer and that he had rewritten his will, transferring his property to his [37] [38] wife. In a statement made on May 28, Swayze said that he continued to respond well to treatment at Stanford University Medical Center. In late May 2008, he was seen at a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game, his first public [39] [40] appearance since his diagnosis. In 2008 Swayze was treated with Cyberknife radiotherapy cancer treatment. In late July 2008, six months after reportedly being given just weeks to live by medical experts, a [41] healthy-appearing Swayze was asked by reporter in Los Angeles airport about this health. He replied, "I'm [42] cooking. I'm a miracle dude. I don't know why". Swayze appeared on the ABC, NBC, and CBS simulcast ofStand Up to Cancerin September 2008, to appeal to the general public for donations for the initiative. Swayze said to a standing ovation "I dream that the word 'cure' will no longer be followed by the words 'it's impossible'. Together, we can make a world where cancer no longer means [43] living with fear, without hope, or worse". After the show ended, Swayze remained on-stage and talked to other cancer patients; executive producer Laura Ziskin said, "He said a beautiful thing: 'I'm just an individual living with [43] [44] cancer'. That's how he wants to be thought of. He's in a fight, but he's a fighter". In late 2008, Swayze denied [45] claims made by tabloids that the cancer had spread to his liver. Swayze told Barbara Walters in January 2009 that [2] he wanted the media to report that he was "kicking it". When Barbara Walters asked him if he was using any holistic or alternative methods of treatment besides the chemotherapy, Swayze admitted to using some Chinese herbs, but not much. He then voiced his opposition to the unsupported claims made by proponents of alternative therapies, as noted by ABC News journalist Joseph Brownstein: Because of the grim prognosis, many patients turn to alternative therapies without scientific evidence behind them. Swayze did not. "That's one thing I'm not gonna do, is chase, is chase staying alive. I'm not, you know, you'll spend so much time chasing staying alive you won't live, you know? I wanna live. If anybody had that cure out there like so many people swear to me they do, you'd be two things: you'd be very rich, and you'd be very famous. Otherwise, shut up,"he told Barbara Walters in an interview that aired in January [46] [2009]. His last role was the lead in an A&E TV series,The Beast, which premiered on January 15, 2009. Owing to a prolonged decline in health, Swayze was unable to promote the series, and on June 15, 2009,Entertainment Tonight [5] reported that the show had been cancelled. In an interview with Barbara Walters which aired in January 2009, Swayze admitted that he had a "tiny little mass" in his liver. On January 9, 2009, Swayze was hospitalized with [47] pneumonia. The pneumonia was said to be a complication of chemotherapy treatments for Swayze's cancer. On

[48] January 16, he was released from the hospital to rest at home with his wife. On April 19, 2009, doctors informed [49] Swayze that the cancer had again metastasized to his liver. Swayze stated that his chain smoking probably "had something to do with" the development of his disease. Photos taken of a gaunt Swayze in the months before his death [50] [51] showed him continuing to smoke. Swayze died "with family at his side" on September 14, 2009, at age 57 (coinicidentally, the same age as his father), [52] [53] 20 months after being diagnosed. Swayze's publicist, Annett Wolf, confirmed to CNN that he had died of [54] pancreatic cancer. He was cremated and his ashes scattered over his New Mexico ranch. He is survived by his wife Lisa Niemi, along with his mother, both brothers and one sister.

Cultural impact [55] Swayze's name has become a commonly used term in hip hop songs. Lyrics will use the phrase "...and I'm Swayze," meaning that the speaker has become "like a ghost", meaning he disappeared or is otherwise gone. This is a reference to the title character of Swayze's 1990 filmGhost. It is known to have begun in the early 1990s, by prominent rappers such as EPMD, Black Sheep, CL Smooth, and more recently by such rappers as The Notorious B.I.G. in 2Pac's songRunnin' (Dying to Live), Method Man, Aesop Rock, and in Mistah F.A.B.'sGhost Ride It. The expression has become such a hip hop staple that it was even used in the Saturday Night Live hip hop parody,Lazy Sunday.
