Bill Murray

Bill Murray has had one of the most unique and unpredictable careers of anyone in show business!

Starting off as a snarky deadpan comic, one of the first breakout stars on Saturday Night Live, he made a series of wildly successful and hugely popular comedies, including “Stripes,” “Caddyshack,” Ghostbusters,” and “Tootsie.”

If we stopped the clock on Murray’s career there, he’d be remembered as a great comic movie star with broad appeal. The film career of his SNL castmate Chevy Chase might be a good eqiovalent.

But unlike Chase, whose film career stalled out, Bill Murray made a breathtaking pivot into more serious, adult, and important movie roles.

In films like “Grounhog Day,” “The Razor’s Edge,” “Moonrise Kingdom,” “Monuments Men,” and his Oscar nominated performance in “Lost In Translation, Bill Murray has established himself as a versatil and talented dramatic actor.

This intriguing multimedia presentation will delve into Murray’s quirky and iconoclastic personality. He’s a Chicago Cubs superfan and the co-owner of several minor league baseball teams. However, Bill Murray has been accused of inappropriate behavior, engaged in many feuds, and Dan Ayckroyd dubbed him “Murraycane” for his wild mood swigs.
