Born as Gary Tygert Burton on October 19, 1964, in Atlanta, Georgia, Pennington was later adopted by his stepfather, hence the renaming to Ty Pennington. Ty grew up in his birth city where both the culture and his mother, a school psychologist, nurtured his creative talents. Besides his enthusiastic interest in modeling and acting from the early years, Pennington was also drawn to carpentry and home improvement, often helping his neighborhood with minor repairs.
Pennington attended Sprayberry High School in Marietta, Georgia, and then pursued his artistry further at the esteemed Savannah College of Art and Design, where he graduated with a degree in Graphic Design. This period was marked by challenges, as he was diagnosed with ADHD, but through this, he discovered that working with his hands helped him focus – a realisation that eventually shaped his future.
