American film actor Miguel Ferrer became famous after he appeared on the screens of the cult action movie of the eighties - "Robocop". And it's true, he was a cousin of the no less famous actor - George Clooney. How was the acting career of Miguel Ferrer built?
Childhood
Miguel Ferrer was born in California, in warm Santa Monica, on February 7, 1955. In the family of an emigrant from Puerto Rico, he becomes the first child. Jose Ferrera, his father, in the 50s is a famous actor who has repeatedly received nominations for many of America's prestigious awards.
He becomes famous all over the world when he plays the main role in the film "Cyrano de Bergerac", for which he receives not only the Golden Globe, but also the Oscar. That is why it is not surprising that his oldest child from marriage with Rosemary Clooney, a pop star, also decides to start an actor's career.
Although Miguel himself says that as a child he dreamed of being a musician. He even participates in the recording of Keith Moon's album “Two Sides of the Moon”, where he records his own drums. However, in the future, genes will play a large role and hardly anyone will regret it later. His good friend from Generators, a music group, recommends the young man to the television producers of the Sunshine project.
We can say that Miguel Ferrer finally inclines to the profession of actor musician Will Robinson.
Career
Miguel Ferrer plays the role of a low-maintenance medical examiner, an FBI agent in the cult American television series directed by David Lynch "Twin Peaks". The image of the hero is so well written in the script that it allows him to easily become a favorite of the audience of the series around the world. Photos of Ferrero Miguel appear in many magazines.
The character of his character is not sugar at all, and terrible manners constantly cause discontent of others. However, after a memorable incident with the sheriff, when Albert, a rather cynical agent, begs "in the face", the character seems to be replaced: he sharply becomes different. This, in turn, cannot but please the public, who loves such plot twists. Subsequently, Miguel will also be noted for his participation in the prequel film Twin Peaks; his premiere will be held in Cannes in 1992.
Of the other successful films by Miguel Ferrer, one can mention Traffic, one of the best films of the year 2000, which helps him even get four Academy Awards, and the cast - the award from the Guild of Film Actors of America. Actors there really came together well-known: director Steven Soderbergh succeeds to get the main roles of the real "monsters" of Hollywood, such as Benicio Del Toro, Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta-Jones. This list can be continued. Shortly before that, he appears in the lyrical drama "Revenge" Tony Scott.

For the third time, he will marry Lori Ventraub in 2005 as a film producer, making this time his final choice. With his last wife, Miguel Ferrer will survive until his death.
Miguel’s interests include golfing for the aristocrats, where he even excels as a tournament organizer.
