Alec Baldwin

Maybe it's the charming appeal of blue eyes cum rugged looks of Alec Baldwin that sets us to swooning. Maybe it's the extensive Filmography of a man who blazed the acting trail for brothers Billy, Daniel, and Stephen that impresses us. Maybe it's his involvement in politics that has us leaning in his direction. Whatever it is, Alec Baldwin has made a mark on our memories and minds that is as indelible as that cleft in his beautiful chin.



Alec's a Long Island Boy, growing up down the road a piece from Rosie O'Donnell (Baldwin in Massapequa, O'Donnell in Commack). He was raised by his homemaker mother and school teacher father. He started studies at George Washington University, where he originally planned to study law; but 'on a dare,' Baldwin auditioned at NYU's drama program, and changed his life plans when he was accepted in 1979.
