William Baldwin

Talented four brothers Baldwin has long conquered Hollywood, and each of the actors has established itself in its genre and role, going through a creative path full of ups and downs. William Baldwin began with the role of a hero-lover, who began to pursue the actor after the movie "The Sliver" with Sharon Stone.

However, he soon proved that his acting range is much wider, diversifying the filmography of dozens of roles - from hero rescuers to maniacs-psychopaths. In life, William's character is close to the ideal - so claim his loved ones, for the poise gave him the nickname Billy-Light.

William Joseph Baldwin was born on February 21, 1963, in Massapqua, New York. Both parents are teachers. His father, Alexander Baldwin, was a history teacher and also worked as a football coach. Carol Newcombe's mother taught in high school. William is the third oldest in the famous four brothers-actors after Alec and Daniel. After him, Stephen and Jane were born. The brothers also have an older sister, Elizabeth.

The children grew up in a large close-knit family, received strict Catholic upbringing, deeply honoring Irish traditions as a tribute to their roots. Of course, when together grow four tomboys, you can not do without quarrels, and sometimes serious fights. William, unlike other brothers, had the best chance to emerge victorious from any brawls, as he was seriously fond of wrestling in school and college. However, he preferred to stay away.

Perhaps this innate sense of diplomacy prompted the boy after graduating from Alfred Berner High School to enter the Faculty of Political Science at Bingampton University. After completing his education, William even interned in the U.S. Congress as an assistant to Democratic Congressman Tom Downey.

However, William did not have to engage in politics. Athletic high (actor height 187 cm) guy invited to work in a promotional photo shoot for Calvin Klein. And from the world of models to actors was a hand to hand, especially when two older brothers have already made strides in the cinema.

Baldwin made his debut in 1989, both on small and large screens. On television, he got the role of a real historical character - Robert Chambers, who killed in 1986 in New York 18-year-old schoolgirl Jennifer Levine. In the TV movie titled "Killing a Graduate" William played with Lara Flynn Boyle.

By the way, after "The Sliver" Baldwin and Stone managed to part with the worst enemies: the ambitious actress disliked her partner and in every way dirtyed him during the filming. But the artist's next partner in "Honest Game," Cindy Crawford, proved to be the charm itself. The role of lawyer Kate McGuinn was the debut for the model, and Stephen as could support a colleague.
