Happy birthday, Jeff Goldblum! The actor turns 64 today.

Born in Pennsylvania, the actor was raised by his parents Shirley and Harold in West Homestead. The actor, along with his siblings, were encouraged by their parents to pursue their interests which led Goldblum to move to New York City at just 17 years old. He studied by the Neighborhood Playhouse under Sanford Meisner and made his acting debut on-stage in Two Gentlemen of Verona.

In the 1980s, Goldblum would star in a slew of films such as The Fly, The Tall Guy, and more. However, he is best known for playing mathematician Dr. Ian Malcolm in Jurassic Park. He reprised his role as Ian in The Lost World: Jurassic Park in 1997. His work in Independence Day and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou are also widely known. In recent years, Goldblum teamed back up with director Wes Anderson for The Grand Budapest Hotel.
