“he was born in Indiana, Pennsylvania, on May 20, 1908. Jimmy became a Boy Scout and remained active in the organization throughout his adulthood. Of course, I'm talking about Jimmy Stewart. He made more than 80 films, including comedies, Westerns and dramas. Jimmy Stewart won an Academy Award for best performance by an actor in 1940 for his performance in 'The Philadelphia Story.' He also received four other Oscar nominations for his performances in 'Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,' a movie which by the way all Members of Congress should be required to watch, and my personal favorite, 'It's a Wonderful Life.' He also appeared in 'Anatomy of a Murder.' Jimmy Stewart was voted the third greatest movie star of all time by Entertainment Weekly. Jimmy Stewart appeared in a number of television shows and Broadway plays and received a Tony award. Although Jimmy Stewart would have preferred to attend the Naval Academy, Stewart entered his father's alma mater, Princeton University, in the fall of 1928. He initially considered engineering, but he finally settled on architecture as his course of study, at which he excelled. He graduated from Princeton in 1932.”
