Roger Moore

Born in London, Roger Moore started out as a trainee animator before acting became a passion. After studying at RADA and a stint in the British Army, he worked in theatre, radio, as a model and a salesman before a contract with MGM in 1953 led to Hollywood and roles in TV series ′Ivanhoe’ and ′Maverick′. But it was the hit 1960s series ′The Saint′ that bought international stardom. He went on to conquer the big screen as James Bond for seven films, more than any 007. In 2003 he was awarded a knighthood for his work for UNICEF.
