Date of Birth-18 December 1963, Shawnee, Oklahoma, USA .Birth Name-William Bradley Pitt. Hight-5' 11" (1.80 m)
Brad Pitt was born in 1963 in Oklahoma and raised in Springfield, Missouri. His mother's name is Jane Etta Hillhouse. His father, William (Bill) Pitt, worked in management at a trucking firm in Springfield. He has a younger brother, Douglas (Doug) Pitt and a younger sister Julie Neal Pitt. At Kickapoo High School, Pitt was involved in sports, debating, student government and school musicals. Pitt attended the University of Missouri, where he majored in journalism with a focus on advertising. He occasionally acted in fraternity shows. He left college two credits short of graduating to move to California. Before he became successful at acting, Pitt supported himself by driving strippers in limos, moving refrigerators and dressing as a giant chicken while working for "el Pollo Loco."
For an actor who eschews the spotlight, Pitt couldn't avoid it last year. His breakup with Jennifer Aniston and subsequent coupling with Angelina Jolie sent the tabloids into a veritable feeding frenzy. (His daughter by Jolie, named Shiloh, was born in May in Namibia.) But it was his share of the profits from the half-billion-dollar grossing "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" that lined his pockets. While fatherhood should no doubt keep him busy, Pitt plans to film "Ocean's 13" with pal George Clooney.Earnings estimates are for June 2005 to June 2006. Figures rounded off where appropriate.
