Indiana Jones Movie Stars : Sean Connery

Sir Thomas Sean Connery (born August 25, 1930 in Edinburgh) is an Oscar-winning Scottish actor and producer who is best known as the first actor to officially portray James Bond. His character's catchphrase 'Bond, James Bond', has become particularly famous. He starred in six official Bond films between 1962 and 1971, plus an unofficial remake in 1983.
Connery is known for his trademark Scottish accent and saturnine good looks. He is repeatedly mentioned as one of the most attractive men alive by magazines, even though he is considerably older than most other sex symbols.

Connery was born in Edinburgh on August 25, 1930. His father, Joseph Connery, was a Roman Catholic of Irish descent with roots in County Wexford, Ireland, while his mother, Euphamia "Effie" Maclean, was a Protestant. He claims he was called by his middle name Sean long before he became an actor, explaining that he had an Irish friend named Seamus and those who knew them both decided to call him by his middle name whenever he was with Seamus, and it stuck.
His first job was as a milkman with St. Cuthbert's Co-operative Society. He then joined the Royal Navy. He had suffered Stomach Ulcer. After being discharged on medical grounds, he briefly returned to the Co-op, then went on to a succession of jobs, including truck driver, labourer, artist's model for the Edinburgh College of Art and lifeguard. Under the name Thom Connery, he placed third in the tall man's division of the 1953 Mr. Universe contest. Another competitor, Johnny Isaacs, suggested that he try out for a stage production of South Pacific, which led to work on the stage, TV, and eventually in films. As a weight lifter, his nickname was "Big Tam".
