Sam Elliott | 75

Samuel Pack Elliott was born on August 9, 1944, in Sacramento, California. As a teenager, he first studied English and psychology at the University of Oregon before dropping out after two semesters. After that, he studied at Clark College for two years and starred in the lead role in the play Big Jule, where everyone saw his talent. Elliott returned to Oregon after graduating from Clark, only to drop out again when his father died of a heart attack. His father had always opposed a career in acting, so Elliott worked admirably as an architect while studying to act.

He has won several awards, such as the National Board of Review Award, and the Critics’ Choice Television Award.
