James Dean is another American icon, and he too had his career begin in New York.
James Dean was born in Marion, Indiana. He is one of the most famous American actors and is often considered to be an icon of the method acting system, though he only made three films in his short career. Before moving to California, he acted in New York, getting his first Broadway role in the production of See the Jaguar. His first film was East of Eden, in which he played the troubled youth Cal. This part brought him incredible respect from the community and helped to land him the role of Jim Stark in his next film Rebel Without a Cause. This is his most famous role, and the one that defined him in the national and historic eye. In this film he also played a trouble youth, which contributed to his recognition as the icon of this major national theme. His final, Giant, also starred Elizabeth Taylor and Rock Hudson. Unfortunately, Dean died before the film was finished. Some of his scenes had to be dubbed over by another actor, and it was after the film opened that he became so nationally known and loved.
