Leonardo Di Caprio


Leonardo Di Caprio : Biography

Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio was destined from the beginning to be a wild and spirited boy. He received his first name after swiftly kicking his mother from her womb as she admired a Leonardo DaVinci painting in the Uffizi. He was born in Los Angeles, CA on the eleventh of November of 1974 to George and Irmalin DiCaprio. Leo was an only child (though he does have a stepbrother named Adam), and his parents divorced each other within a year after his birth. His mother is German and his father is Italian, and their backgrounds had a major influence on his upbringing. His father produces underground comic books and comic arts out of his garage. His mother was a legal secretary (before she began managing Leo's affairs.)

Leonardo Di Caprio : Career

At five he appeared on his favorite TV show _"Romper Room" (1970)_ and was nearly thrown off for misbehaving. After a string of commercials, educational films ("Mickey's Safety Club"), occasional parts in TV series, a debut film role as Josh in Critters 3 (1991), a continuing role as the homeless boy Luke in the TV series "Growing Pains" (1985), he got his break-through part as Toby in This Boy's Life (1993), co-starring with Robert De Niro and Ellen Barkin. He became known after his Oscar-nominated role for Best Supporting Actor in What's Eating Gilbert Grape? (1993). Later films include Romeo and Juliet (1996), Titanic (1997), The Man in the Iron Mask (1998), The Beach (2000), Gangs of New York (2002), and The Aviator (2004, Golden Globe Best Actor; Best Actor Oscar nomination).
