Owen Wilson

Born November 18, 1968 - Dallas, Texas

The middle child of the famed Wilson brothers, Owen was a troublemaker and comic growing up. He was expelled from St. Mark's Academy and finished high school at Thomas Jefferson School. He then went on to a military academy, graduated, and enrolled at the University of Texas (Austin). He and (now director) friend Wes Anderson wrote Bottle Rocket, a short starring himself and his brothers, which was shown at the Sundance Festival and picked up (and made into a full-length feature film) by the director James L. Brooks. His more famous films are Zoolander, Shanghai Noon, Behind Enemy Lines, and the more recent You, Me, and Dupree.

Personal Quote: "You can think of Hollywood as high school. TV actors are freshmen, comedy actors are maybe juniors, and dramatic actors — they're the cool seniors."
