world was very strong born on May 31st 1930 at St Francis memorial hospital in San Francisco he surprised the hospital staff with his weight of 11 lb 6 oz which made them refer to him as Samson his parents were Ruth NE Margaret Runner and Clinton Eastwood senior Ruth eventually changed her surname from that of her first husband to accommodate her second John Beldon wood while Clint was raised under the identity of his real father Eastwood W he wasn't the only child in the family he had a younger sister Jean burnhard Eastwood's family lineage is fascinating the family's history is traced from numerous strands with English Irish Scottish and Dutch blood running through his veins Clint Eastwood's roots are deep in American soil he is the 12th generation born in North America descended from William Bradford a passenger on the historic Mayflower East Wood's Family Life as a child however was not as nomadic as he has been presented in interviews while his father's work changes required three relocations in the 1930s they settled in pedmont California in 1940 contrary to several recorded accounts the eastwoods were able to live comfortably in this elegant City their house had a swimming pool which Clint probably liked growing up in the California Sun membership in a country club suggests a socially busy lifestyle which is supported by the fact that Ruth and Clinton senior both possessed cars which was unusual at the time Financial stability appears to have been the norm with Clint's father working as a manufacturing executive at Georgia Pacific for most of his career as Clint and his younger sister Jean approached adolescence Ruth supplemented the family finances by working as a clerical at IBM Clint Eastwood Wood's official schooling was not without its challenges academic difficulties arose early at pedmont Middle School when his grades were so poor that he was held back a year records even show that he attended extra summer classes to keep him on track Eastwood eventually went to pedmont high school in January 1945 but his time here was short though details are unclear it's obvious that his time at pedmont high was not characterized by academic success multi violations resulted in his removal by January 1946 the specific nature of these violations is unknown nevertheless there are reports of an offensive message penned by Clint Eastwood on the athletic field scoreboard possibly in defiance of school authorities another incident involved burning an effigy on school premises further heightening the level of rebellion displayed in conjunction with other issues these actions led to ped High School reaching a decision that appeared to be highly detrimental to the acclaimed actor Eastwood's academic Journey continued at Oakland Technical High School which could have indicated a shift in his educational priorities Oakland Tech and educational institution noted for its Diversified vocational programs provided a potentially more interesting learning environment for a young man with interest that went beyond the usual classroom setting he planned to graduate midyear in in January 1949 but the realities surrounding his actual graduation are still very unknown however many believed that the movie star did all he could to graduate while details of what happened remain unclear the testimonies of his classmates give insight into Clint Eastwood's High School experience Don concade with a sense of humor recalls that shop class or even the aviation program was Eastwood's strong point another of his high schoolmates Don Lumis tells us that Clint Eastwood's Focus was not entirely on academics he chased something different from what other people in his age grade would have wanted he concluded that Eastwood had a more active social life outside of school this aspect of the story is also confirmed by Fritz Ms a junior colleague of his who believes Eastwood may have just decided to prioritize a different type of education one rich in experiences outside the classroom these memories provide a look into a teenage Eastwood who was likely more interested in forging his path than following a boring school pattern that he believed was not very beneficial to him but how did he meet his secret crush whom he lacked the courage to express his love to until the age of 93 stay tuned chapter 2 the start of his career Eastwood's Journey To Success did not come on a platter of gold despite being from an affluent home Clint Eastwood had to chart his own course and like many would tell you it was never a process before making his mark on the big screen he worked odd jobs to establish a broad resume from lifeguarding to newspaper delivery grocery store clerking to Forest firefighting and even golf caddying Eastwood's early years were characterized by an eagerness to attempt new things during this time he also attempted to further my studies Eastwood reportedly decided to attend Seattle University in 1951 however fate or possibly the approaching Korean War intervened Eastwood was drafted into the US Army eager to serve his Nation however Eastwood's experiences in the Korean War caused some disagreement while he may have hinted at a more action-packed part his former longtime companion sandre lock had a different take according to lock Eastwood served his whole military career as a lifeguard stationed at Fort or in Northern California if this is correct this detail gives a less dramatic image of his career as a soldier regardless of the circumstances Eastwood's Army experience surely shaped him in some way whether it was the discipline established by military life or the companionship formed with fellow soldiers these events undoubtedly made a huge impact on the young man who would later become a Hollywood star Eastwood stay at Fort or a California military installation is steeped in mystery while information concerning his particular responsibilities is unknown certain Tales such as those of his friend Don Lumis suggest he may have had some amount of privilege Lumis discusses reports of a love relationship with the daughter of a fort or officer which could influence his assignments one especially dramatic episode from this period jumps out while on leave Eastwood reportedly went to Seattle possibly for a pre-arranged meeting on his return trip the Douglas ad bomber he was riding in encountered a serious problem it ran out of fuel and crashed into the water near Point Reyes Eastwood and the pilot showed tremendous resilience they used a life raft and their swimming abilities to cross 2 km to safety demonstrating their bravery and resourcefulness in the face of danger Eastwood's military duty was officially finished in February 1953 while some aspects of his time at Fort or are still contested there is no doubt that this experience implanted vital attributes in the young Eastwood discipline resourcefulness and maybe a little luck would all help him on his path to Hollywood success the actual events of Clint Eastwood's first Hollywood break are still debated one version publicized by a CBS press release for the television show Rawhide depicts a fortunate encounter at Fort or Eastwood's Military Base According to one tale a universal International Studios Production crew on set observed Eastwood and invited him to meet the director after being pleased by his behavior however Patrick mcgilligan eastwoods unauthorized biographer has questioned the narrative's veracity stating that it was a little bit unclear what the reason was behind the linkup Eastwood's official biography provides a different perspective it involves and credits Chuck Hill an old Ford ort acquaintance for establishing his Hollywood career Chuck Hill who appeared to have some ties in the film industry met with Clint Eastwood following their military duty and managed to get him onto the Universal Studios site in Los Angeles Chuck Hill brought Eastwood to cameraman Irving glassberg a critical meeting that would pave the way for his screen test and subsequent contracts he was bound to receive the entrance arranged by cameraman Irving glassberg proved to be a watershed moment for Eastwood glassberg set up an audition for him with Arthur Luben a producer at Universal Studios Luben while obviously impressed by Eastwood's commanding physical presence he stood at 6' 4 in was less thrilled about his acting talents Eastwood's inexperience was obvious Luben subsequently noted he was very amateurish he had no idea where to turn where to go or what to do despite his doubts Luben sensed promise in the young guy he encouraged Eastwood to perfect his craft through theater workshops before unexpectedly offering him his first contract with the company in April 1954 the starting compensation was modest $100 per week the first part of Eastwood's on-screen career was not without its difficulties his early performances showed signs of stiffness and unprofessionalism which some attributed to the fact that he was nervous and his habit of delivering lines through clenched teeth which has become a trademark Eastwood mannerism received

status as a Hollywood Legend is eastwoods Crush also a Hollywood actress keep watching to find out Eastwood's first expedition into Hollywood acting was not without difficulty in May 1954 his first

had some problems even though he did his best to get the best out of his craft some unfortunate things still happened one of them being that Universal Studios opted to end his contract on October 23rd 19 1955 this rejection could have been devastating but for Eastwood it served as a pruning Moment unmoved by what had happened he decided to use the expertise he gained during these early years to pursue fresh possibilities setting the path for a more defining chapter in his Hollywood career after Universal let him go Eastwood was back where he started he refused to give up on his Hollywood dreams so he signed with the marsh agency in the the hopes of receiving better representation this decision paid off to some degree Arthur Luben who had first identified Eastwood's Talent remained a supporter Eastwood's biggest role to date came from Luben the first traveling sales Lady 1956 he even landed another film with lubben Escapade in Japan 1957 however the lack of a long-term contract with a major Studio meant that Financial volatility was an ongoing issue Eastwood ever ingenious followed the advice of his financial adviser Irving Leonard and changed talent agencies twice in an attempt to better his chances he began working for the kumin olenic agency in 1956 and then went to Mitchell gerz in 1957 while a significant breakthrough remained elusive these agencies assisted him

an aviator in the war picture Lafayette Escadrille 1958 he also won a prominent role in the western film Ambush at simmeron pass 1958 which he later described as the low point of his career despite
