Michael Caine

Born in St. Olive Bermondsey, London on March 14, 1933 as Maurice Joseph Micklewhite to a Billingsgate fish porter and a charlady, Caine was an evacuee during the war. He emigrated to America in the 1970s but hankered for Britain and returned in the early 1980s. After a national service in Korea, he appeared on stage and TV before landing a starring role in Zulu in 1963. But it was in the starring role in the romantic comedy-drama film Alfie (for which he was nominated for an Academy Award) and later as Harry Palmer in the spy film The Ipcress File that he made his name in the movie industry.
