Jonathan-David Jackson was born in Gastonia, North Carolina, in 1987. At first, he could not walk, talk, or even use the toilet. Soon, he was walking and talking as good as anyone, and perhaps better. Walking and talking wasn't good enough, though, so he also learned to write, which he does all the time now.
