Who is Bradley Cooper?

Bradley Cooper was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the suburb of Abington Township, on January 5, 1975, to parents that weren’t precisely Hollywood types. Cooper’s father worked as a stockbroker at financial giant Merrill Lynch while his mother was part of Philadelphia’s NBC affiliate. At a young age, Cooper was more interested in cooking and playing basketball but wanted to get into acting while at Germantown Academy.

Following high school, Cooper attended Villanova University and Georgetown University, where he honed his acting skills. Even after getting his start as an actor, Cooper continued to take acting classes and was working odd jobs that helped him meet the likes of Robert De Niro, whom he would go on to work with on the big screen to live out his acting dreams.
