John Lithgow
Birth Date: October 19 1945 Birth Place: N/A
If "born to the theater" has meaning in determining a person's
life path, then John Lithgow is a prime example of this truth.
Son of a retired actress and a father who was both a theatrical
producer and director, he moved frequently as a child while his
father founded and managed local and college theaters and
Shakespeare festivals throughout the midwest of the United
States. Not until he was 16, and his father became head of the
McCarter Theater in Princeton New Jersey, did the family settle
down. But for John, the theater was still not a career. He won a
scholarship to Harvard University, where he finally caught the
acting bug (as well as found a wife). Harvard was followed by a
Fullbright scholarship to study at the London Academy of Music
and Dramatic Art. Returning from London, his rigorous dramatic
training stood him in good stead, and a distinguished career on
gave him one Tony for "The Changing Room", a
second nomination in 1985 for "Requiem for a Heavyweight", and a
third in 1988 for "M. Butterfly". But with critical acclaim came
personal confusion, and in the mid '70's he and his wife
divorced. He entered therapy, and in 1982 his life started in a
new direction, the movies - he received an Academy
nomination for his portrayal of Roberta Muldoon in
World According to Garp, The (1982). A second Oscar
nomination followed for Terms of Endearment (1983), and he
met a UCLA economics professor who became his second wife. As the
decade of the '90's came around he found that he was spending too
much time on location, and another career move brought him to
television in the hugely successful series
"3rd Rock from the Sun" (1996). This production also
played a role in bringing him back together with the son from his
first marriage, Ian Lithgow, who has a regular role in the
series as a dim-witted student.
