George Clooney Biography

Actor George Clooney during a ceremony in which he was named a United Nations Messenger of Peace on January 31, 2008 at the U.N. building in New York City. George Clooney Named United Nations Messenger of Peace - January 31, 2008 United Nations New York,
  • Birth Name: George Timothy Clooney
  • Birth Place: Lexington, KY
  • Date of Birth / Zodiac Sign: 05/06/1961, Taurus
  • Profession: Actor; writer; producer; director
Although he was working steadily in B-movies and bad TV series by his midtwenties, this magnetic actor didn't become a sex symbol and megastar until he landed the plum role of a rogue doctor on ER in 1994. Fame, film roles and the tabloids followed, yet after a string of wooden performances in high-priced flops, including The Peacemaker and Batman & Robin, it looked like his career might go the way of David Caruso's. But in the early '00s, Clooney bounced back by appearing in a wide array of roles: a dashing criminal in Ocean's Eleven, a goofy fugitive in O Brother, Where Art Thou?, and a dead serious CIA operative in 2005's Syriana, which earned him both a Golden Globe and an Oscar as Best Supporting Actor. That same year, Clooney also tried his hand behind the camera, netting Golden Globe and Academy Award nods as a director and screenwriter for Good Night, and Good Luck. Off screen, other than a brief marriage to Talia Balsam when he was young, this hunk is a notorious bachelor who has been linked with a long list of lovely ladies.
