Gary Sinise tells inside story of 40-year marriage to his beloved wife MoiraGary Sinise isn’t like other actors. The Golden Globe-winning philanthropist has dedicated his life to acting and his family, but also to supporting others in any way he can.

Unlike other celebrity marriages, Sinise and his wife Moira Harris have stayed together for 40 years, raising three beautiful children in the process. Now, Gary has revealed to his fans the secret behind the wonderful and long-lasting marriage.

Gary Sinise has had a career unlike many others. It’s quite common that actors and actresses have their big breakthrough role at an early age, but here’s why Sinise’s career has been different right from the beginning.

We’re not saying that the now 65-year-old actor didn’t have a successful career in his youth. However, he had to wait until he starred in the classic 1994 film Forrest Gump for his big breakthrough role.

Acting has always been Gary Sinise’s main occupation, but he’s made sure to make the most of his life, both by being a wonderful father and husband, and by helping veterans. Fell in love with theater
It reportedly all started in high school, when Gary got hooked on acting.

Born March 17, 1955 in Blue Island, Illinois, Gary grew up in Highland Park. He was kind of a rebel in high school, and played in bands.

“Well, my dad was working all the time,” Sinise told Ability Magazine. “My mom had her hands full. I was kind of free to do what I wanted. And I wasn’t good in school.”

Gary got his first guitar in fourth grade and played through school. He started playing in several bands as a kid, and continued to do so into his early twenties.

However, while he was studying in high school, something else came up. Gary Sinise was bit by the theater bug, he said.

“I was playing in bands, doing plays, and started a theater company after high school, but I kept playing as a way to make a living while doing the theater until I was 22,” he said. “Then, the theater just took over everything, and all I did was focus on building our theater company.”

As mentioned earlier, Gary Sinise didn’t have his breakthrough at an early age. In fact, he didn’t start acting until later on, but rather spent most of his time behind the camera instead. Gary Sinise – work as director
In high school, Gary tried out for West Side Story as a lark. By closing night, he knew he wanted to perform for the rest of his life. He credits his love for the profession to his drama teacher, Barbara Pattersson.

In 1974, by the age of 21, he, together with friends Terry Kinney and Jeff Perry, decided to found the Steppenwolf Theatre Company in Chicago. They started of by performing in a church basement, but as the business grew, they gained more and more influence in the Chicago area.

In 1981, he took over as the artistic director. Gary wanted the company to move their plays to New York City in order to branch out.

“It was challenging at the time, not everybody agreed with that,” Sinise explained.

“We were trying to open a new theater at the same time here in Chicago, so there was some disagreement back then about how we should do that and whether we should do it at all. I thought it would be good and we just pushed for it. And once we got things open there in New York, we started taking plays there every year after that.” Gary directed some of the companies biggest productions. It included Sam Shepherd’s True West, with which Steppenwolf Theatre Company made their off-Broadway debut, starring both Gary and John Malkovich.

In 1990, Steppenwolf made their Broadway debut at the Cort Theatre with The Grapes of Wrath. At this time, Gary was also making his move towards the Hollywood stage, directing two episodes of the television series Crime Story, as well as Miles from Home, starring Richard Gere.

Up to this point, Gary had been on the other side on the camera. But in 1992, he made his debut as an actor, starring in the World War II film A Midnight Clear.

In 1994, Gary Sinise would become known to the entire world. He hadn’t been in the public eye despite his many successes as a director, but now, he got his big breakthrough.

Sinise was cast and starred in the blockbuster miniseries The Stand as Stu Redman. The same year, he got the role of Lt. Dan in Forrest Gump, starring alongside Tom Hanks.

His performance as the disabled and emotionally tortured veteran got Gary Sinise the recognition he much deserved. He received many awards, as well as being nominated for both a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture and even an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor in a Supporting Role.
