   Harrison Ford was born on July 13, 1942, in Chicago, Illinois., he was picked on by bullies while growing up. Harrison Ford came into his success relatively late in life. He grew up in the Chicago suburbs of Park Ridge and Morton Grove, where his father was an advertising executive, producer of TV commercials, and sometime radio actor. Never academically inclined, Ford failed out of tiny, conservative Ripon College in Ripon, Wisconsin, where he had majored in philosophy.

    After discovering drama in college, he did a season of summer stock in Williams Bay, Wisconsin before heading out to Hollywood in 1964 with his college sweetheart and new wife, Mary Marquardt.

    Ford is famously reluctant to reveal much about his personal life to the press. In 1978 he divorced Marquardt, with whom he has two sons, Ben and Willard. In 1983, Ford married Melissa Mathison, a screenwriter who penned the scripts for movies such as E.T., The Indian in the Cupboard, and Kundun. They have two children, Malcolm and Georgia. After he and Mathison divorced in 2001, he started dating Calista Flockhart, formerly of Ally McBeal.

     In 1997 Harrison Ford was chosen by "People" magazine as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World and ranked #1 in Empire (UK) magazine's "The Top 100 Movie Stars of All Time" list; in 1998 he was chosen as People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive.
