Dustin Hoffman

(born 1937) Stage and film actor, Hoffman played in offBroadway theaters in the 1960s. In 1967 Mike Nichols noticed his talent. With Hoffman’s small stature, Nichols had him play a naive twenty year old in The Graduate (1967), for which he received a Best Actor Oscar nomination. In 1979 he won his first Best Actor Oscar for his role in Kramer vs Kramer.

His role in Rain Man earned him a second Oscar in 1988. Hoffman is also a director and producer of stage, television and film productions.
