Born on: Jul 30, 1947 (Age: 64) Leo
Born in: Austria
Marital status: Divorced
Occupation: Governor of California, Actor, Hollywood

For a person who landed on the shores of America as an immigrant with the great American dream, few would have given him a chance even in their wildest dreams. On the contrary, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s rise to prominence has been as formidable as his universally admired physicality. A millionaire many, many times over, he's made a fortune for himself both through acting and some smart property deals. Plus, the fact that he's married into the Kennedy family, only pumps up his reputation. Born in the small and isolated Austrian village of Thal, Arnold devoted himself to his first passion, bodybuilding, from a very young age. His hard work bore fruit as a twenty-year old Schwarzenegger became the youngest ever winner of the coveted Mr. Universe title in 1967. He won the crown again in 1969 and went on to dominate every major bodybuilding competition ever since, including Mr. Universe, Mr. World, and Mr. Olympia. After officially retiring from his beloved sport at the age of 33, Arnold decided it was time to make his larger-than-life presence felt in Hollywood as well. What transpired is well-known to all as the beefy actor delivered a slew of hits which included the iconic Terminator series that gave him a cult status and made Arnold and his inimitable style a household commodity. After rocking the box office, Arnold made a dash for politics and decided to run for the post of Governor of California in 2003 in which he amazingly succeeded. Schwarzenegger does not accept his governor’s salary of $175,000 per year, and instead donates it to charities. Many believe that the big man may next be gunning for the White House for which an amendment to the constitution has been proposed that would make it possible for him to seek the presidency.
