Biography
Donald Clark, or "Donny", Osmond was born to Olive and George Osmond on December 9, 1957, in Ogden, Utah. He was the seventh of eight brothers and has one sister. When Donny was young, his family went to see Lawrence Welk in California. They were unable to meet with him so decided to take a vacation to Disneyland. This is where Donny's older brothers Wayne Osmond, Alan Osmond, Merrill Osmond and Jay Osmond were discovered by Walt Disney. They performed at Disneyland and were soon asked to perform on "The Andy Williams Show" (1962). They performed on the show for nine years, with Donny joining the show at age six. After their run on the show was up, the brothers spent two years trying to make it big before Mike Curb and Rick Hall found "One Bad Apple", the song originally chosen for The Jacksons (then known as The Jackson Five), but was instead recorded by the Osmonds and made them famous. For the next several years Donny traveled all over the world with his brothers, performing for fans such songs as "Puppy Love", "Crazy Horses", "Go Away Lttle Girl", "Down By the Lazy River" and "Twelfth of Never". In 1974, Donny's sister Marie Osmond started performing with the brothers and Donny recorded duets with her. That led to their co-hosting "The Mike Douglas Show" (1961). An executive at ABC saw the show and offered them their own TV variety show. The pair took it under one condition--that the whole family be involved. "Donny and Marie" (1976) was a huge success and lasted four years. During the run of the show, Donny married Debra Glenn in 1978 and started a family. In 1979 the show was canceled and the family was faced with a huge debt that they repaid. The early 1980s were not easy for Donny. He tried many different avenues, including starring in "Little Johnny Jones" on Broadway, but without much success. Donny had a break in the late 1980s, though, when he teamed up with Peter Gabriel and recorded "Soldier of Love", which went to #2 on the US charts. In the 1990s, he toured as Joseph in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat". This lasted to the late 1990s. After that, he teamed up with Marie again for the "Donny & Marie" (1998), this time a TV talk show. This was highly successful as well, but only lasted a few years. After the end of the show, Donny once again returned to music. He has since released "This is The Moment" a collection of Broadway tunes, and "Somewhere in Time", a collection of love songs. Shortly afterward Donny was offered the opportunity to host the syndicated game show "Pyramid" (2002), a revival of the popular ",000 Pyramid" game show, and it ran from 2002-2004. Donny has released a new single "Breeze on By", which reached #8 on the UK charts. He has an upcoming CD "What I Meant to Say" due out in November in the UK and January 2005 in the US.

- Appeared in one of the all-time monumental flops on Broadway, the 1982 revival of George M. Cohan's "Little Johnny Jones" (the show that James Cagney's Oscar-winning Cohan performs while singing "Yankee Doodle Dandy" in the eponymous 1942 film), which was pitifully old-fashioned and out-of-date, even in those early years of Reaganism. The show opened at the Alvin Theatre on March 21, 1982 after 29 previews and closed that same day for a total of one (1) performance. Only those shows that close without ever having officially opened (that is, during previews) have done worse.
- Mentioned in the song "Life Is a Rock But the Radio Rolled Me" by Reunion.
