Ben Stiller
Born 30 Nov 1965, in New York
Wise words: "My father is always telling me to take care of myself and get a lot of rest. He's always saying, 'Sleep will fix anything. Go take a nap'. I think he's right. I find when I get frazzled, if I get a good night's sleep, I feel much better about things".
