Edward Norton biography

On August 18, 1969, Edward Harrison Norton was born into a progressive Episcopalian family in Boston, Massachusetts.

He grew up in the city of Columbia, Maryland. Edward Mower Norton Jr., his father, was a Marine lieutenant in Vietnam before working as an environmental lawyer and conservationist in Asia and as a federal prosecutor during the Carter administration.

James Rouse, Norton’s maternal grandfather, was the founder of the real estate developer The Rouse Company and a co-founder of Enterprise Community Partners.

Molly and James are his two younger siblings.

Norton became interested in theatre after seeing Cinderella with his parents at the Columbia Center for Theatrical Arts (CCTA) when he was five years old.

Norton stated that it was theatre, not movies, that motivated him to pursue acting. At the age of eight, he made his professional debut at Toby’s Dinner Theatre in his hometown in the musical Annie Get Your Gun.

He went on to become a cinema buff, citing Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro as early influences because “the ones loved were also the ones who made think they could do it since they weren’t the most gorgeous people.”

Norton stated that he and Love were merely friends and coworkers and that they were not romantically linked.

Love, however, revealed on an episode of Craig Ferguson’s Late Late Show that they had been together for “four years.”

This was in addition to her comments about their previous relationship in a 2006 interview.
