Kirk Douglas | 4 Children

We often realize our goals in life at the most unexpected times. For Kirk Douglas, this was to become an actor, a dream he realized when he was a kindergartner. Before he found success under the Hollywood spotlight, however, Kirk worked numerous jobs to help with his family’s personal loans – around 40 jobs throughout his youth. Today, Kirk has cemented his industry status with his roles in Champion, The Bad and the Beautiful, and Spartacus.

To fans around the world, he is known as one of Hollywood’s greats. To his four kids, he is known as a dad. Throughout his life, Kirk has never failed to show his love and support for them. In fact, after learning about the FaceTime app, papa Kirk made it a habit to always call and check up on his kids every night. It goes to show that being a world-famous celebrity never stopped him from being a great father.
