Best known to his many fans for one of his most memorable
screen incarnations—San Francisco Police Inspector “Dirty”
Harry Callahan—the actor and Oscar-winning filmmaker Clint
Eastwood is born on May 31, 1930, in San Francisco, California.

With his father, Eastwood wandered the West Coast as a boy
during the Depression. Then, after four years in the Army
Special Services, Eastwood went to Hollywood, where he got
his start in a string of B-movies.

For eight years, Eastwood played Rowdy Yates in the popular
TV Western series Rawhide, before emerging as a leading man
in a string of low-budget “spaghetti” Westerns directed by
Sergio Leone: Fistful of Dollars (1964), For a Few Dollars More
(1965) and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966).
