George Clooney is a rare thing in Hollywood: a hard-working actor, respected and adored by fellow professionals and the public alike. His laid-back style and easy-going personality have led to his being dubbed the new Cary Grant. Far from his years as an obscure, jobbing actor during his film career he has worked with such luminaries as Brad Pitt, the Coen Brothers, Mark Wahlberg, Julia Roberts, Steven Soderberg and Nicole Kidman. details his upbringing in a showbiz family (his father, Nick Clooney, was a local TV and radio personality, his aunt was singing star Rosemary Clooney), his years of work on unsuccessful pilots for TV shows and his rise to fame as Dr Doug Ross in ER. He became one of the first major cast members to leave the show, launching his film career somewhat shakily with The Peacemaker and the critically-panned Batman & Robin, he reasserted his Hollywood credentials with Out of Sight, Three Kings and O Brother, Where Art Thou?, and made his directorial debut with Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.

This is another paragraph Product Description: A-list celebrities don't come much bigger than George Clooney. Film star, producer and director, Clooney brings the Midas touch to every project he takes on. Directors queue to shoot his next picture, actors take huge salary cuts to appear alongside him, producers bend schedules to accommodate his every need. But it wasn't always like this. When hospital drama series ER hit American TV screens in 1994, George Clooney finally achieved the overnight success that he'd been working solidly towards for more than a decade. As maverick paediatrician Dr Doug Ross, he won over the hearts of millions, finally putting behind him the gruelling and often demeaning years of selling women's shoes, cutting tobacco and appearing in more than a dozen pilot episodes for series that were never made. Next stop Hollywood and starring roles with Nicole Kidman, Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts. This title offers an account of how this unassuming, good natured and good looking guy from Kentucky became the hottest movie star and the world's most eligible bachelor. But there is so much more to Clooney than good looks: from his pivotal role in US television's post-11 September charity telethon America: A Tribute to Heroes, to his controversial decision to take on the tabloids on behalf of all actors, and stories of his stepping in when bullying directors have attacked a co-star. George Clooney has been proud to stand up and be counted when it mattered. He takes press intrusion in his stride, still has the same pre-fame friends and has never forgotten his roots. He doesn't conform to normal star behaviour. But then George Clooney is no ordinary star, as this biography aims to reveal.
