Sheen has appeared in a wide variety of films ranging from
the embarrassing to the sublime. In addition to appearing
in numerous productions on stage, screen, and television,
Sheen is the father of a modern dynasty of actors and a tireless
activist for social and environmental causes, particularly
homelessness. Born Ramon Estevez on August 3, 1940, he was
the seventh of ten children of a Spanish immigrant father
and an Irish mother. Growing up in Dayton, OH, Sheen wanted
to be an actor so badly that he purposely flunked an entrance
exam to the University of Dayton so he could start his career
instead. With his father's disapproval, he borrowed cash from
a local priest and moved to New York in 1959. |
