Born Today:
Hugh Jackman
The multi-talented Hugh Jackman (1968-) began his career in live theatre in Australia, after taking a drama class in college. He played Curly in Oklahoma! on London’s West End in 1998 and shortly afterwards, landed the role of Wolverine in the first of several X-Men movies. He appeared in The Boy From Oz on Broadway in 2003 and has returned several times since, proving himself to be a delightful song-and-dance man.
