Noah Wyle

Skipped school at 14 to audition for Milos Forman's Valmont (1989). Although he could ride and fence, at the time he had acted only in school productions. His head shot/resume was a picture from "Our Town" with his other school roles listed on the back. Needless to say, he didn't get the part.
