Early life
Woodrow Tracy Harrelson was born in Midland, Texas, on July 23, 1961, the son of secretary Diane (née Oswald) and convicted hitman Charles Voyde Harrelson. He was raised in a Presbyterian household alongside his two brothers, Jordan and Brett, the latter of whom also became an actor. Their father received a life sentence for the 1979 killing of federal judge John H. Wood Jr. Harrelson has stated that his father was rarely around during his childhood. Charles died in the United States Penitentiary, Administrative Maximum Facility on March 15, 2007. Harrelson’s family was poor and relied on his mother’s wages. In 1973, he moved to his mother’s native city of Lebanon, Ohio, where he attended Lebanon High School, from which he graduated in 1979.[8] He spent the summer of 1979 working at Kings Island amusement park.
Harrelson attended Hanover College in Hanover, Indiana, where he joined the Sigma Chi fraternity and received a BFA in Theatre and English in 1983. While there, he crossed paths with future Vice President Mike Pence. He said in 2018, “I knew [Pence], yeah. We were both very religious. I was at Presbyterian college at the time, and I was there on a Presbyterian scholarship, and he was involved with the church activities. I was actually considering being a minister and then I just kind of went a different way… I actually quite liked him. I thought he was a pretty good guy. He’s, you know, very religious. Very committed. Seeing as how I’m not quite in that ballpark now, I don’t know how we’d get along, ’cause I think he’s still quite religious and just a whole different brand of religious. That kind of fervor that you really don’t want.”
