A Life in Motion and Art
Ed Templeton is an American professional skateboarder, contemporary artist, and photographer. Born in Garden Grove, Orange County, California, USA, he grew up in various locations across Southern California before settling in Huntington Beach. His journey into skateboarding began in 1985 in Huntington Beach, inspired by the sight of a skater performing an ollie over a curb. This fascination led him to become a professional skateboarder, eventually signing with New Deal Skateboards in 1990. He later founded the skateboard company Toy Machine in 1994, a brand for which he creates all the artwork. In 2016, he was inducted into the Skateboard Hall of Fame.
