Gary Sinise is one of the classiest, most talented, and humble actors working in film, television, and theatre today. In his long and versatile career, Sinise co-founded the Steppenwolf Theatre Company in the 70’s, won an Emmy and a Golden Globe Award, and has been nominated for an Academy Award. His humanitarian efforts are just as impressive as his acting credits: In 2008 Sinise was awarded the Presidential Citizens Medal (the second highest civilian award in the United States) for his work with Iraqi school children and his involvement with the USO.
