I have a degree in European history, which didn't necessarily have any direct impact on my career, but I'm grateful I studied something other than acting in college.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I did a history degree once.
When I went to college, my goal was to be a college history teacher. I majored in history.
My background is somewhat unusual, as I trained to be a ballet dancer. I worked in the theatre for eight or nine years as a contemporary dancer. But as an actor one does read Shakespeare and does try to learn the classics.
I was at college studying psychology, philosophy, textiles and drama. But because I wasn't one of those all-singing, all-dancing stage-school kids, I just assumed I'd never become an actor.
By the time I entered high school, I had forsaken academics altogether in favor of my burgeoning acting career.
I studied movies for many years, but I am professionally an actor because I, my background is actually a stage actor and acting.
I had two different degrees: One in International Relations/Political Science and another degree in Radio and Television Production.
I really love acting, but I also really want to be a historian, so it's really confusing.
I started a French degree at university, but packed it in when I realised I really wanted to be an actor.
My background is in theater. I was a theater major in college.
