Nominated for eight Academy Awards and awarded an honorary Oscar for his body of work, Irish actor Peter O'Toole made his film debut in the mid-50s, but his breakthrough role as T.E. Lawrence in David Lean's Lawarence of Arabia came in 1962 after Marlon Brandon turned down the role and Albert Finney proved to be unavailable. His performance as Lawrence ranked number one in Premiere magazine's of the 100 Greatest Performances of All Time.
His film career continued with appearances in such films as Becket, The Lion in Winter, Goodbye, Mr. Chips, The Ruling Class, The Stunt Man, My Favorite Year and Venus.
He is considered by many critics to be one of the greatest actors of his generation. He has two daughters, Pat and Kate O'Toole, from his marriage to actress Sian Phillips. He also has a son, Lorcan, by model Karen Brown.
