Harrison Ford
Harrison Ford was born on July 13th, 1942, in Chicago Illinois to advertising executive/writer Christopher (né John William Ford) and former radio actress Dorothy (née Nidelman) Ford. He has a younger brother named Terence. Harrison's great-grandfather was a comedian on the Vaudeville stage. Harrison Ford had a fairly typical childhood, he was an average student (literally) at Melzer Junior High School and at Maine Township High School in Park Ridge Illinois and was the first voice on his high school radio station WMTH. His college career, at Ripon College (in Wisconsin) where he was a philosophy major, fared not much better (though he did learn to fly during this time but didn't start back up until he was in his 50s) as far as grades were concerned but he did manage to make it through almost to the very end. He dropped out of Ripon College just two weeks before graduation. His majors were English and Drama...he started acting here and did summer stock.
After Harrison dropped out of college he signed contracts with Columbia Studios and later Universal Studios and in-between acting jobs managed to teach himself carpentry by checking out books on the subject from the library (he became a carpenter to the stars). He played very minor or secondary roles with the two studios and frankly was not making the money he had hoped, becoming discouraged, he went back to carpentry almost full-time to pay the bills. Good thing he did. A carpentry job led him to land one of his biggest or most iconic roles in his career (or anyone else's for that matter): Star Wars' Han Solo.
Harrison Ford went on to become one of the biggest movie stars.
Ford lives in Wyoming, Los Angeles, New York. He has been married three times, Mary Marquardt (1964 - 1979), Melissa Matheson (1983 - 2004 div), and Calista Flockhart (2010 - present) has 5 children (1: Benjamin & Willard) (2: Malcolm & Georgia) (3: Liam), and is a plane and helicopter pilot.
