BIOGRAPHY OF KEVIN BACON

Actor. The youngest of six children of Edmund Bacon, a well-known Philadelphia urban planner. At just seventeen he moved to New York to pursue an artistic career and is one of the youngest students admitted to the Circle in the Square Theater School. He made his debut in the cinema with “Animal House” in 1978, but despite the success of the film, he subsequently appeared in minor films and participated for a season in the soap opera “Sentieri”. In 1982 he returned to the limelight thanks to the film “Dinner with friends” by Barry Levinson, in a cast that also includes Steve Guttemberg and Mickey Rourke and in 1983 he starred in “Footlose”, thanks to which he definitively achieved notoriety. Subsequent films, however, do not have the same luck and Kevin gets more awards in the theater. He made his Broadway debut with John Byrne’s play “Slab Boys”, alongside Sean Penn and Val Kilmer. In the 1990s his career took off and Kevin played some notable roles, including “JFK A Case Still Open” (1992), “Code of Honor” with Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson and Demi Moore (1992), ” The island of injustice “(1994),” Apollo 13 “with Tom Hanks (1995),” Sleepers “, with Brad Pitt and Robert De Niro (1996),” Sex Crimes “with Matt Dillon (1998). In 2000 he starred in “Hollow Man”, with Elisabeth Shue. He has been married since 1988 to actress Kyra Sedgwick, with whom he had two children, Travis and Sosie Ruth. Together with his brother Michael he founded the blues band The Bacon Brothers in 1994, enjoying some success. Among the curiosities, some students have invented a game, “Six degrees of Kevin Bacon”, inspired by the famous film “Six degrees of separation” and quickly became a real case for the popularity achieved, in which it is claimed that each of us he is six degrees away from a famous person, thanks to connected friendships. Of course, the aim of the game is to find all the characters of the show six degrees away from Kevin Bacon or, in the more difficult variant, all the characters three degrees away.
