The hyper-talented actor, writer, musician, and comedian Donald Glover has dominated pretty much every form of entertainment out there. But who is he really, and what's the story behind the icon? This is the untold truth of Donald Glover. Donald Glover was born in 1983 on Edwards Air Force Base, in the desert outside of Los Angeles. He and his parents soon relocated to Stone Mountain, Georgia, where Glover spent his childhood. In an interview for Esquire, Glover talked about his difficult upbringing, saying: "Confederate flags everywhere. I had friends who were white, whose parents were very sweet to me but were also like, ‘Don’t ever date him.’ I saw that what was being offered on Sesame Street didn’t exist." Glover lived with his mother, father, sister, brother, two adopted siblings and a rotating cast of foster kids. He recently told The Hollywood Reporter: "I saw kids dying of AIDS in our house. I saw people getting stabbed. I saw drug dealers stealing people's address books so they could get to my house because people [there] owed them money." But even among all these difficulties, the young boy dreamed of a brighter future, and even wrote himself a letter at age 11 that said: "I'm gonna try and I'm gonna save the world."
