Alain Delon
Early Year Of Celebrities : Alain Delon
Delon was born in Sceaux, Île-de-France, not far from Paris.
His parents, Fabien and Édith, divorced when Delon was young. Both remarried, and Delon has a half-sister, and two half-brothers. He attended a Catholic boarding school, the first of several schools from which he was expelled, because of unruly behavior. Despite this behavior he was more than competent as a student. Teachers once tried to convince him to enter the priesthood because of his aptitude in religious studies.
At fourteen Delon left school, and worked for a brief time at his stepfather’s butcher shop. He enlisted in the army three years later, and in 1953 was sent to fight in the First Indochina War. Delon has said that out of his five years of military service he spent 11 months in prison for being “undisciplined”. After being dishonorably discharged from the army he returned to Paris. He had no money, and got by on whatever employment he could find. He spent time working as a waiter, a porter, and a sales clerk. During this time he became friends with the actress Brigitte Auber, and joined her on a trip to the Cannes Film Festival, where his film career would begin.
