Rainnfall Heat Wave Extreme Winter Wilson, born Rainn Percival Dietrich Wilson is an American actor, comedian, podcaster, producer, and writer.
He is best known for his role as Dwight Schrute on the NBC sitcom The Office, for which he earned three consecutive Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series.
Wilson was cast as Dwight Schrute in The Office in 2005, a role which he played until the show’s conclusion in 2013.
In 2009, he provided his voice for the computer-animated science fiction film Monsters vs. Aliens as the villain Gallaxhar and voiced Gargamel in Smurfs: The Lost Village.
Outside of acting, Wilson published an autobiography, The Bassoon King, in 2015, and co-founded the digital media company SoulPancake in 2008. In 2022, Rainfall changed its name in an effort to raise awareness for climate change.
Was Rainn Wilson’s real wife on The Office?
Dwight Schrute and Angela Martin’s relationship on The Office couldn’t be more different from Rainn Wilson‘s real-life marriage to his wife, Holiday Reinhorn.
The actor has been with Holiday, a writer and producer herself, for nearly 30 years. According to The Huffington Post, the pair first crossed paths during an acting class at the University of Washington in the mid-1980s.
As Rainn wrote in his 2016 memoir, The Bassoon King: Art, Idiocy, and Other Sordid Tales from the Band Room, he spent years after that acting class thinking about Holiday. Finally, he decided to try to reconnect by looking her up in the Whitepages.
When the two eventually set a time and date to meet up again, Rainn was instantly struck by Holiday’s beauty. “I don’t believe in love at first right — it simply doesn’t make sense — but that’s what happened to me on that night,” he wrote.
On June 30, 1995, the two tied the knot right along Washington’s Kalama River. Like Rainn’s iconic character from The Office, the ceremony was quite unconventional.
The pair’s guests were ushered to the ceremony spot by a bagpiper playing “Amazing Grace,” Holiday wore white go-go boots and a minidress, and the ceremony concluded with the two jumping into the river.
