GABRIEL
CADE's BIO as we first saw it on the CBS
Survivor Website: |
Gabriel Cade was
born and raised in the tiny alternative community
of Celo, North Carolina. His father is a doctor
and his mother is a nurse. In addition, they run a
small farm with goats, chickens, rabbits and
fields of  blueberry
bushes. Cade has one brother, Jason, and a twin
sister, Emily.
During his first two years of high school in
Mitchell County, Cade was a competitive figure
skater, a member of a singing quartet and was part
of a symphony orchestra (having played classical
cello since he was seven years old). He also
studied jazz and ballet dancing. He then
transferred to the North Carolina School of
Science and Mathematics for his junior and senior
year. As the school required community service, he
spent two summers working for World Changers, an
organization that assists in building homes for
impoverished individuals. Graduating in 1996, he
then traveled throughout Europe where he
eventually began volunteer teaching English in a
small town in France while also leading adventure
trips for students.
Returning to the States, Cade enrolled at the
University of North Carolina where he intended to
pursue a double major in biology and drama with a
double minor in English and French. During his
freshman year, he completed a rescue scuba diving
course to become certified. After his freshman
year, he returned to Europe to continue leading
the adventure trips. He then returned to the
States and enrolled in a Sarasota, Florida-based
school named New College. With no grades and no
core requirements, if a course didn't exist, he
was able to create it and call it an independent
reading project. For a brief time, his major was
French Science Fiction. While there, he was able
to fulfill a lifelong dream of playing soccer with
a semi-professional team while also coaching at a
local middle school. In addition, he performed and
taught ballroom dancing.
In the summer of 1998, Cade spent four months
hiking the Appalachian Trail from Mount Katahdin,
Maine, to Springer Mountain, Georgia
(approximately 2,000 miles). He then returned to
college, this time at the University of North
Carolina, Asheville, until he decided to move to
Los Angeles, California. He obtained a job writing
for a national college newspaper where he ran the
entertainment section. This afforded him the
opportunity to interview his favorite celebrities,
attend the Sundance Film Festival and participate
in lavish press junkets. When he decided to leave
the paper, he then began teaching an S.A.T. math
prep course while bartending and serving as a
chauffeur for an elderly gentleman.
Gabriel Cade's favorite hobbies are reading,
writing, soccer, camping and learning new
languages. He is fluent in French and moderately
versed in three additional languages. He currently
lives in Hollywood, Calif.
