my new hero

As soon as Prison Break, the American drama, was released, a young man who called Wentworth Miller became one of the most popular stars. When I saw the drama, I just couldn’t help changing my idol since Wentworth really done a good job in it.

Wentworth Earl Miller III,better known to audiences as just Wentworth Miller, was born on June 2, 1972, in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, England to parents, Roxann, a special education teacher, and Wentworth Earl Miller II, a lawyer educator. His two younger sisters, Gillian and Leigh, are also involved in the law field, similar to his father.

When he turned a year old, his family moved to Park Slope, Brooklyn, New York. His father became an assistant district attorney over there. Wentworth retains a dual citizenship, but affirms that he has always been an American. He also comes from a very diverse background, his father is of African-American, Jamaican, English, German, Jewish and Cherokee descent, and his mother is of Russian, French, Dutch, Syrian and Lebanese descent.

Wentworth attended Midwood High School in Brooklyn, where he was a member of Sing, an annual musical production that was started by Midwood. He later transferred to Quaker Valley Senior High School in Sewickley, Pennsylvania. Wentworth was a straight student in high school and was involved in the AV club and school newspaper.

After graduating from high school in 1990, he attended Princeton University. He was also a cartoonist for the school paper and a member of the A Capella group—— The Princeton Tigertones, where he sang baritone. It was then that he realized he was interested in performing in front of big and small audiences. Five years later, in 1995, he graduated from Princeton with a bachelor's degree in English Literature and moved to California.

That same year, he was hired by a small company who made movies for television. About a year and a half later, he realized that he had unconsciously moved to Los Angeles to be an actor. He then decided to quit his job at the production company even after his employee at the production company had offered him another stable job position. Unfortunately for Wentworth, breaking into the industry was a tough job for him. He worked as a temp at several production companies before ending up working as a temp for his former employee's production office.

It wasn't too long before Wentworth started landing guest roles on show such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, ER and Popular. He also starred in the Hallmark series, Dinotopia, playing the character, David Scott. These guest spots later on led to a role in the feature film, The Human Stain, which happened to be his breakthrough role, alongside Nicole Kidman and Sir Anthony Hopkins, where he played the younger version of Anthony Hopkins' character, Coleman Silk. Although the film didn't fare well in movie theaters, it was well received by viewers and critics, further catapulting Wentworth to bigger stardom.

After The Human Stain, he appeared in the movie Underworld, as Dr Adam Lockwood, opposite Kate Beckinsale and Stealth, playing the voice of EDI. He also guest-starred in the series finale of CBS' Joan of Arcadia, as Ryan Hunter, a charming-yet-sinister man who revealed to Joan that he also spoke to God. It was reported that his character would be Joan's greatest challenge, but in May, CBS decided to cancel the show, leaving fans to wonder what might have been. In 2005, Wentworth appeared in the pilot of Ghost Whisperer before eventually starring on FOX network's Prison Break.

Wentworth plays the role of Michael Scofield, a character helping his brother, Lincoln Burrows, escape death row after being found guilty of a crime which he did not commit. Prison Break became an instant hit and Wentworth secured a spot among viewers as one of the hottest up-and-coming actors around. His performance in the show earned him a Golden Globe nomination, a Saturn award nomination, as well as three Teen Choice Award nominations.

Wentworth describes himself as a very private person who likes to spend time just relaxing at home when he's not working. He enjoys swimming, reading, taking naps as well as going to different restaurants every week.

He has also mentioned in an interview that he is writing a screenplay in Chicago, and he enjoys spending time at The Art Institute Of Chicago because he believes that music, painting, movies and theater can all contribute to the work of an actor.

Actually, I just liked the character which he plays at first, but after seeing his all information,I found that he is really an excellent guy.He keeps making efforts for his dream all his life, and never gives in.Not everyone can do like this,but, everyone needs to. And for me ,this is what I learn from him.

 

第二篇:My dreamed hero

My dreamed hero

Humans can not live without brief, as they give you the motivation to live a happy life. Spiritual plays an important role in our life. I`m not sure that all the people can be the heroes to the whole world, but I do believe that heroes exist in everyone`s heart by different kind of terms, maybe a human being? a book? a story? Different people got different opinions about it. Someone may admire chairman Mao, who lead to set up the people`s republic of china. Oh, Jesus, I don`t like them at all. Once I was in primary school, I wanted to be a great person like the monkey king. He was so talented with various kind of kongfu. No one would beat him util he was monk tang`s student. And finally I found the hero who inspires me to study and work hard is myself. Although they had done something amazing, wonderful, or great, and respected by hundreds and hundreds of people, the one who could encourage to move on is still myself. Maybe I am not good enough, or deserve to get a so-called hero, but I believe that I would do it better someday. One can not beat by anyone except yourself. So if you win yourself, you are the hero, isn`t it ?
