&lt;br /&gt;
James Earl Jones (born January 17, 1931) is an American actor. His career spans more than seven decades, and he has been described as "one of America's most distinguished and versatile" actors and "one of the greatest actors in American history". Since his Broadway debut in 1957, Jones has won many awards, including a Tony Award for his role in The Great White Hope, which also earned him a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor in a Leading Role for the film version of the play. Jones has won three Emmy Awards, including two in the same year in 1990. He is also known for his voice roles as Darth Vader in the Star Wars film series and Mufasa in Disney's The Lion King, as well as many other film, stage and television roles.

His father, the actor Robert Earl Jones, left his family before James Earl Jones was born, and the youth was raised largely by his grandparents in Michigan. He attended the University of Michigan (B.A., 1953), majoring in drama, and, after a brief stint in the U.S. Army, went to New York City, studying at the American Theatre Wing with Lee Strasberg. He acted in his first Off-Broadway production in 1957 and subsequently with the New York Shakespeare Festival in 1961–73.
Jones has been said to possess "one of the best-known voices in show business, a stirring basso profondo that has lent gravel and gravitas" to his projects, including live-action acting, voice acting, and commercial voice-overs. In 1970, he won a Grammy Award for Great American Documents. As a child, Jones had a stutter. In his episode of Biography, he said he overcame the affliction through poetry, public speaking, and acting, although it lasted for several years. A pre-med major in college, he went on to serve in the United States Army during the Korean War before pursuing a career in acting. On November 12, 2011, he received an Honorary Academy Award. On November 9, 2015, Jones received the Voice Arts Icon Award. On May 25, 2017, he received an Honorary Doctor of Arts degree from Harvard University and concluded the event's benediction with "May the Force be with you".

A prolific career in pictures began with a part in the Stanley Kubrick film Dr. Strangelove (1964). Jones’s other movie roles included an evil ruler in the fantasy film Conan the Barbarian (1982), a coal miner fighting for the right to form a union in John Sayles’s Matewan (1987), and an African king who lets his son (played by Eddie Murphy) travel to the United States in the comedy Coming to America (1988). He appeared as Adm. James Greer in the film adaptations of Tom Clancy’s novels about CIA agent Jack Ryan: The Hunt for Red October (1990), Patriot Games (1992), and Clear and Present Danger (1994). In 1995 Jones portrayed the Rev. Stephen Kumalo in the film version of Alan Paton’s classic novel Cry, the Beloved Country. Jones next starred opposite Robert Duvall in A Family Thing (1996). His big-screen appearances diminished in the 21st century, though he did take occasional supporting roles. He received an honorary Academy Award in 2011.
James Earl Jones was born in Arkabutla, Mississippi, on January 17, 1931, to Ruth (Williams) Jones (1911–1986), a teacher and maid, and Robert Earl Jones (1910–2006), a boxer, butler, and chauffeur. His father left the family shortly after James Earl's birth, and later became a stage and screen actor in New York and Hollywood. Jones and his father did not get to know each other until the 1950s, but became reconciled then. He has said in interviews that his parents were both of mixed African-American, Irish and Native American ancestry
From the age of five, Jones was raised by his maternal grandparents, John Henry and Maggie Williams, on their farm in Jackson, Michigan; they had moved from Mississippi in the Great Migration. Jones found the transition to living with his grandparents in Michigan traumatic, and developed a stutter so severe that he refused to speak. When his family moved to the more rural Brethren, Michigan, a teacher helped him overcome his stutter. He remained functionally mute for eight years until he entered high school.
He credits his English teacher, Donald Crouch, who discovered he had a gift for writing poetry, with helping him end his silence. Crouch urged him to challenge his reluctance to speak. "I was a stutterer. I couldn't talk. So my first year of school was my first mute year, and then those mute years continued until I got to high school.

Jones was educated at the Browning School for boys in his high school years and graduated as vice president of his class from Dickson Rural Agricultural School (now Brethren High School) in Brethren, Michigan. He attended the University of Michigan, where he was initially a pre-med major. He joined the Reserve Officer Training Corps and excelled. He felt comfortable within the structure of the military environment and enjoyed the camaraderie of his fellow cadets in the Pershing Rifles Drill Team and Scabbard and Blade Honor Society. During the course of his studies, Jones discovered he was not cut out to be a doctor.

Instead, he focused on drama at the University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre &amp;amp; Dance with the thought of doing something he enjoyed, before, he assumed, he would have to go off to fight in the Korean War. After four years of college, Jones graduated from the university in 1955

Film and stage career
Early career
Jones began his acting career at the Ramsdell Theatre in Manistee, Michigan. In 1953, he was a stage carpenter. During the 1955–57 seasons, he was an actor and stage manager. He performed his first portrayal of Shakespeare's Othello in this theater in 1955. His early career also included an appearance in the ABC radio anthology series Theatre-Five

&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;name:&lt;/span&gt; Thomas Jeffrey "Tom" Hanks &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;born&lt;/span&gt; July 9, 1956&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Early life&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hanks was born in Concord, California. His father, Amos Mefford Hanks (born in Glenn County, California on March 9, 1924 – died in Alameda, California on January 31, 1992), was a distant relative of President Abraham Lincoln, through Lincoln's mother, Nancy Hanks. His mother, Portuguese-American Janet Marylyn Frager (born in Alameda County, California on January 18, 1932), was a hospital worker; the two divorced in 1960. The family's three oldest children, Sandra, (now Sandra Hanks Benoiton, a writer), Larry (now Lawrence M. Hanks, Ph.D., an entomology professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) and Tom went with their father, while the youngest, Jim, now an actor and film maker, remained with his mother in Red Bluff, California. Afterwards, both parents remarried. The first stepmother for Sandra, Larry,&lt;br /&gt;
and Tom came to the marriage with five children of her own. Hanks once told Rolling Stone: "Everybody in my family likes each other. But there were always about 50 people at the house. I didn't exactly feel like an outsider, but I was sort of outside it." That marriage ended in divorce after just two years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Amos Hanks became a single parent, working long hours and relying on the children to fend for themselves often, an exercise in self-reliance that served the siblings well. In school, Hanks was unpopular with students and teachers alike, telling Rolling Stone magazine: "I was a geek, a spaz. I was horribly, painfully, terribly shy. At the same time, I was the guy who'd yell out funny captions during filmstrips. But I didn't get into trouble. I was always a real good kid and pretty responsible." In 1965, Amos Hanks married Frances Wong, a San Francisco native of Chinese descent. Frances had three children, two of whom lived with Tom during his high school years. Tom acted in school plays, including South Pacific, while attending Skyline High School in Oakland, California.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hanks studied theater at Chabot College in Hayward, California, and after two years, transferred to California State University, Sacramento. Hanks told The New York Times: "Acting classes looked like the best place for a guy who liked to make a lot of noise and be rather flamboyant. I spent a lot of time going to plays. I wouldn't take dates with me. I'd just drive to a theater, buy myself a ticket, sit in the seat, and read the program, and then get into the play completely. I spent a lot of time like that, seeing Bertolt Brecht, Tennessee Williams, Henrik Ibsen, and all that, and now look at me, acting is my job. I wouldn't have it any other way."&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was during his years' studying theater that Hanks met Vincent Dowling, head of the Great Lakes Theater Festival in Cleveland, Ohio. At Dowling's suggestion, Hanks became an intern at the Festival, which stretched into a three-year experience that covered everything from lighting to set design to stage management. Such a commitment required that Hanks drop out of college, but with this under his belt, a future in acting was in the cards. Hanks won the Cleveland Critics Circle Award for Best Actor for his performance as Proteus in Shakespeare's The Two Gentlemen of Verona, one of the few times he played a villain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Personal life&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hanks was married to Samantha Lewes from 1978 to 1987. The couple had two children, son Colin Hanks (also an actor) and daughter Elizabeth Ann. In 1988, Hanks married actress Rita Wilson. The two first met on the set of Hanks's television show Bosom Buddies but later developed a romantic interest while working on the film Volunteers. They have two sons: Chester, or "Chet" (who has a small part as a student who asks Dr. Jones a question at the end of the college chase in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull), and Truman.&lt;br /&gt;

Her parents divorced when she was five, prompting Graham and her father to move to the Washington, D.C. area, where he became a congressional staffer. Graham traveled extensively with her father while growing up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Graham discovered acting while in elementary school and further honed her talent at Langley High School, where she took part in the drill team. Graham quickly took to acting in community theatre and other small productions. She earned her actor's equity card in 1988 after two years in summer stock at the Barn Theatre in Augusta, Michigan. Graham graduated from Barnard College in 1988 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English. After moving to Texas in 1992, she earned a Master of Fine Arts in Acting Performance from Southern Methodist University.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Filmography&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Actress&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;# Let It Go (2009) (TV) (pre-production) ....

Roker initially wanted to be a cartoonist. He was raised Catholic (in the faith of his mother) and graduated from Xavier High School in Manhattan. He worked on several projects as a member of the school's Cartooning &amp; Illustration club. He attended the State University of New York at Oswego where he double majored in graphic design and broadcasting/journalism in college. He worked in television around the Cleveland and New York areas before he became a weather forecaster for WNBC in New York City. Roker is a cousin of the late actress Roxie Roker, who is most notable for her role on the hit sitcom The Jeffersons, and the cousin of her son, popular rock musician Lenny Kravitz.&lt;br /&gt;In 2002, in accordance with his late father's wish, Roker underwent gastric bypass surgery to lose weight, which he said he did after failing at numerous diets. Eight months after that surgery, the New York Daily News reported he dropped 100 pounds (45 kg) off his 320-pound figure. In 2005 Roker had a back operation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His (third) wife is fellow journalist Deborah Roberts, who has reported for both ABC and NBC, meeting Roker when she joined the latter in 1990 as a reporter. They worked together on Today from 1990–1995 with Roberts filling in for Faith Daniels, Margaret Larson and Matt Lauer at the newsdesk and Roker filling in for Willard Scott as the forecaster. Roker also filled in for forecaster Joe Witte on the former NBC News program NBC News at Sunrise from 1983-1996. Roker has three children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Filmography&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Producer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;# "D.E.A."

His parents, Sheila and Ron, ran a restaurant.He has an older brother named Brian, and it was by following his brother to an audition in fourth grade that he first began acting—as Toto in a school production of The Wizard of Oz. He attended La Cueva High School in Albuquerque and was active in school plays and musicals there. Harris was an honors student and graduated with honors in 1991. He was three years ahead of fellow La Cueva student Freddie Prinze, Jr&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Personal life&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In November 2006, after a report about Harris' romantic relationship with actor David Burtka surfaced online, Harris came out publicly in People.He had been openly gay in his personal life and in the theater community, but stated, "The public eye has always been kind to me, and until recently I have been able to live a pretty normal life. Now it seems there is speculation and interest in my private life and relationships. So, rather than ignore those who choose to publish their opinions without actually talking to me, I am happy to dispel any rumors or misconceptions and am quite proud to say that I am a very content gay man living my life to the fullest and feel most fortunate to be working with wonderful people in the business I love."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Harris and Burtka attended the Emmy awards in September 2007 as an openly acknowledged gay couple for the first time, an appearance which Harris discussed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and which was reported in various media outlets. Neil and David have been together since April 2004 Harris has referred to Burtka as "My better half," and an "amazing chef".&lt;br /&gt;Harris is a fan of magic, and is a magician himself like his character on How I Met Your Mother. He serves on the Board of Directors of Hollywood's Magic Castle Harris won the Tannen's Magic Louis Award in 2006 and hosted the 2008 World Magic Awards on October 11, 2008. Additionally, Harris was the celebrity guest of honor for Top Chef Masters, which took place at the Magic Castle, and included Burtka as a fellow guest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Filmography&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Actor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;# Beastly (2010) (filming) ....

Like his baseball great namesake whose pennant-winning walk-off home run in 1951 was dubbed "The shot heard round the world," this Bobby's meteoric rise has led to his being referred to as "The tot seen round the world."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For he exhibited promise as an entertainer early on, starting out as a rapper at the age of 5. The next year, he made his acting debut on the TV series My Wife and Kids, and he's been working steadily in showbiz ever since.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bobb'e J. Thompson skirted to fame as a child actor well before his teens, initially with a small but colorful and energetic supporting role as the pint-sized Tupac in the unofficial Three Men and a Baby update My Baby's Daddy (2003), then with an ongoing small screen characterization as the infatuated Stanley on the situation comedy That's So Raven. Thompson provided one of the voices in the CG-animated adventure comedy Shark Tale (2004) and contributed to OutKast mainstay Bryan Barber's offbeat, inventive musical drama Idlewild (2006), before teaming up with Vince Vaughn in the holiday comedy Fred Claus, and Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott in the acerbic farce Role Models (2008). Alongside his film work, Thompson culled favorable attention for his prominent contributions to the youth-oriented urban dance video JammX Kids: Can't Dance Don't Want To, which afforded him the opportunity to show off his flair for urban music and footwork. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Filmography&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Actor:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;# Snowmen (2009) (completed) ....

His father, Nathaniel Tureaud Sr., was a minister. Tureaud, with his four sisters and seven brothers, grew up in one of the city's housing projects, Robert Taylor Homes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tureaud attended Paul Lawrence Dunbar Vocational Career Academy, where he played football, wrestled, and studied martial arts. He won a scholarship to Prairie View A&amp;M University. Tureaud also attended several small Chicago area colleges on athletic scholarships. After leaving school, Tureaud became a military policeman in the U.S. Army, before trying out for the NFL football team Green Bay Packers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tureaud worked as a bouncer after he returned from the army. It was at this time that he created the persona of "Mr. T." His wearing of gold neck chains and other jewelry was the result of customers losing the items or leaving them behind at the bar/night club after a fight. A customer, who may have been banned from the club or trying to avoid another confrontation, would not have to re-enter the club if Mr. T wore their jewelry as he stood out front. When a customer returned to claim the item, it was readily visible and available with no further confrontations required. Often, the "former" customers did not return. Mr. T thus built up a large collection and earned a reputation for wearing many gold neck chains and bracelets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. T managed eventually to parlay his job as a bouncer into a career as a bodyguard to the stars that lasted almost ten years. He protected well-known personalities like Muhammad Ali, Steve McQueen, Michael Jackson, Leon Spinks, Joe Frazier and Diana Ross, charging $3,000 per day. &lt;br /&gt;As a bodyguard, Tureaud's business card read, "Next to God, there is no greater protector than I." Mr. T claimed that he never lost a client, saying, "I got hurt worse growing up in the ghetto than working as a bodyguard." A bald-headed Mr. T can be seen on film accompanying Joe Frazier to the ring in Frazier's rematch against George Foreman in 1976.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Personal life&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. T is a born-again Christian&lt;br /&gt;n 1990, a Chicago woman, Vanessa Taylor, filed a Petition to Establish Parentage regarding a minor child, a boy, which she claimed Mr. T had fathered. The case was filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois under the docket number 1990 D 79322. There was no disposition recorded on the court docket as of 1994.&lt;br /&gt;In 2005, Mr. T stated that he would never wear his chains again. He arrived at this decision after seeing the effects of Hurricane Katrina. However, he has been seen wearing some chains for several commercial appearances, such as the 2007 U.K., Ireland, Australia and New Zealand Snickers advertisement, and the 2007 World of Warcraft ad. Mr. T donated a great deal of clothing and money to Katrina victims. He has been a guest on Fox News Channel's The O'Reilly Factor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In April 2009, Mr T was called for jury duty in Chicago. He showed up in court but was not chosen. Afterwards he signed autographs and posed for pictures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Filmography&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Actor:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;# Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (2009) (voice) ....

Hader's comedic aspirations eventually led him to Los Angeles where he joined the Second City, a comedy troupe that has been a training ground for many SNL cast members since the 1970s. He also performed at iO West in Los Angeles. During his time at Second City and iO West, Hader worked as a production assistant on the DVD Empire of Dreams: The Story of the Star Wars Trilogy and Collateral Damage, as well as an assistant on VH1's The Surreal Life. Prior to SNL, Hader was perhaps most known for his work as a "field agent" on MTV's Punk'd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Personal life&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hader announced at the premiere of the movie Paper Heart on August 5th, 2009, that he and wife Maggie Carey were expecting their first child in late September.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Filmography&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Actor:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;# MacGruber (2010) (filming) (rumored)&lt;br /&gt;# Paul (2010) (post-production)&lt;br /&gt;# Hoodwinked Too!

Murray II, a lumber salesman. Murray, along with his siblings, grew up in an Irish Catholic family. Three of his siblings are actors: John Murray, Joel Murray, and Brian Doyle-Murray. His sister, Nancy, is an Adrian Dominican Sister in Michigan, traveling around the country portraying St. Catherine of Siena.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The family lived in poverty, and Lucille Murray pressured her children to work. As a youth, Murray read children's biographies of American heroes like Kit Carson, Wild Bill Hickok and Davy Crockett. He attended St. Joseph's grade school and Loyola Academy. During his teenage years, he worked as a caddy to fund his education in a Jesuit High School. The 1960s were tough on Murray and his family. His father had diabetes, one of his sisters had polio and his mother had several miscarriages. During his teen years he was the lead singer of a rock band called the Dutch Masters and took part in high school and community theater.&lt;br /&gt;After graduating, he attended Regis University in Denver, Colorado, taking pre-med courses. However, when police arrested him for possession of marijuana at Chicago's O'Hare Airport, he abandoned his studies. In 2007, Regis University awarded him an honorary Doctor of Humanities degree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Filmography&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Actor:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;# Ghostbusters III (2012) (announced) ....
