Leonardo DiCaprio – California
Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio was born on November 11, 1974, in Los Angeles, California. DiCaprio’s parents split up when he was only a year old, but since they wanted to closely co-parent, they moved into twin cottages with a shared garden in Echo Park, Los Angeles. He attended the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies for four years and later the Seeds Elementary School, before enrolling at the John Marshall High School. DiCaprio struggled at the beginning of his career, remaining jobless for a year and a half, even after 100 auditions. Eventually he secured roles in 20 commercials, where his acting career finally began to take off.
