Randolph Seven "Trey" Parker III is one of the creators of South Park, as well as South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, and many other South Park related media.
The character Stan Marsh is largely based on him. He and Matt Stone, the other co-creator, created South Park, which first aired back in 1997, and since then it has become highly successful, earning the creators a spot in the history books as visionaries of one of the most popular American animations that deals with real-life difficulties such as politics, stereotyping, and racism. The show has also won several Emmys for its ingenuity and hilarious comedy. Parker is also the writer behind most of the songs in South Park.
Early Life[]
Parker was born in Conifer, Colorado, the son of Sharon Parker, an insurance broker, and Randolph "Randy" Parker, a geologist - the two share the first names and occupations of the South Park characters Randy and Sharon Marsh. He has an older sister named Shelly, also the name of Stan Marsh's older sister.
Parker grew up in the Conifer, Colorado area, and attended Berklee College of Music before transferring to the University of Colorado, where he majored in music. However, he did not graduate. The university offered him an honorary degree, which he said he would only accept "if it was for astrophysics."
