Travis Strong is a character from the teen drama "Radio Free Roscoe".

Biography

Fresh from living with his father in Hong Kong, Travis Strong begins his time at Roscoe High School as an eccentric outsider. He quickly becomes the show's focus, however, when Robbie McGrath discovers him interrupting a school broadcast with a portable transmitter. Rather than exposing Travis, he convinces him to broadcast again, leading to the formation of Radio Free Roscoe. Because of his father's job as a diplomat, Travis Strong has lived all over the world, and while his frequent moves make him reluctant to form lasting personal bonds, his travels have made him wise beyond his years. Like any teenager, he often struggles to determine his place in life and deal with his impulses and emotions, but he is usually the voice of reason and picture of calm. He is a devout Buddhist and can often be heard quoting Buddha and other philosophers.

He moved to Roscoe at the end of eighth grade, after being in Hong Kong for a year. Because his diplomat dad keeps moving the family so much, Travis survives by not letting anybody get too close. He's definitely a little bit of a freak, but there's a mystery to him that is compelling.

He's driven by a relenting energy that constantly questions the world around him. As valuable as this quest to ask why is, it sometimes gets in the way when Travis takes life too seriously, instead of just being a kid.

His year is filled with romantic drama and some tough choices to make, but for the first time in his life, he has a strong crew of friends to help him through it. At the end of the series though, he moves back to Hong Kong.
