Actor: Barry Pepper

Barry Pepper played Private Jackson in Saving Private Ryan, a sniper who recites scripture while shooting, and the bell tower sequence is among the film’s most memorable.

The Green Mile, 61* and True Grit filled out a career of intense supporting parts, and he won an Emmy for playing Robert Kennedy.

He grew up on a sailboat, his parents having sailed the South Pacific for five years during his childhood, which is not a common actor’s biography.
