George Clooney
- Childhood dream: to become a baseball player
I guess we all know who George Clooney is, but besides his acting career, not many people know that he wanted to become a baseball player as a child. However, he is the recipient of three Golden Globe Awards and two Academy Awards.
He made his acting debut on television in 1978 but rose to fame after starring in the medical drama ER from 1994 to 1999. His role as Dr. Doug Ross earned him two Primetime Emmy Award nominations.
He played baseball and basketball in school and even tried to do it professionally, joining the Cincinnati Reds in 1977. After giving up that baseball team, he earned money selling women’s shoes, insurance, working in construction and cutting tobacco.
