Michael Jerome Oher is a former American football offensive tackle who played in the National Football League (NFL) for eight seasons, primarily with the Baltimore Ravens.

Oher’s life through his final year of high school and first year of college is one of the subjects of Michael Lewis’ 2006 book, The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game, and was featured in the Academy Award-winning 2009 film The Blind Side. He was born as Michael Jerome Williams, Jr. on 28th May, 1986, to Michael Jerome Williams and Denise Oher, in Memphis, Tennessee. He has eleven siblings. He did not receive much care as a child as his mother was an alcoholic and his father spent most of his time in prison. When Michael was in high school his father was killed while in the prison. Oher failed in first and second standards and had to change many schools. He was taken into foster care when he was eleven years old and since then he grew up with various foster parents. As a high school student, he enjoyed playing football. At the suggestion of an acquaintance Tony Henderson, he enrolled at the ‘Briarcrest Christian School’. There he was trained by coach Hugh Freeze and Tim Long, Oher enhanced his football skills, and in 2003, he became the Division II (2A) Lineman of the Year. In 2004, he moved into the care of Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy, who had a son and a daughter who were also students at the ‘Briarcrest Christian School’. Later, the couple adopted Oher. Thus, he got proper care and attention which he lacked as a child. His needs were met with and he was even trained in various sports like basketball and track. He worked as a student and scored good grades which enabled him to get an admission into a school of the Division I of ‘National Collegiate Athletic Association’ (NCAA).
