Bill Murray | 1950

American actor Bill Murray has been in the industry for 48 years now, and throughout those years, he has starred in some of the most beloved Hollywood titles. Some of you may know him from the cult favorite Ghost Busters, while some of you may know him from the Sofia Coppola film Lost In Translation. Either way, he’s an icon through and through.

Murray was born in Illinois on September 21, 1950. Growing up, he enjoyed a relatively normal childhood and upbringing. He even tried to take up a degree in medicine but dropped out. His foray into acting started in the 1970s when he became a part of a comedy troupe. From 1977 to 1980, Murray became involved with the comedy variety show Saturday Night Live. Although he only spent three years on the show, it was enough to break him into the Hollywood industry. From there, he began earning more and more roles until he became an Emmy awardee. The actor is still very much active today. However, he does tend to keep a lower profile.
