Known as the "sporty kid" Danny was born Daniel William Wood in Massachusetts.
Danny grew up in a strict household learning to be self-disiplined. At school he was known for his academic ability and adaptability as well as his self-discipline. Danny was put in an advanced teaching program and was offered three university scholarships including a four-year scholarship to Boston University.
Lucky for us, Danny wasn't just a bookworm. He was also a budding athlete and enjoyed music. He enjoyed running and was a member of an athletic club. At school Danny became a member of the Rock Against Racism break-dancing group. During his attendance at the William Monroe Trotter school he joined The Kool Aid Bunch, of which fellow New Kid, Donnie, was also a member.
In 1984, following recommendation from Donnie Wahlberg, Danny joined New Kids On The Block.
While in New Kids On The Block Danny got involved in writing and producing.
