Born in Wilmette, Illinois, in 1950 on the 21st of September, Murray began his path towards success by joining The Second City, a comedy group which relied on improvisation, based in Chicago. He got the attention of the Saturday Night Live producers and landed a job there, which ultimately won him an Emmy award.
Since then, he’s well-known for his roles in comedies like Caddyshack, Ghost Busters and Groundhog Day. These were movies which had great success with the general public, yet did little to impress critics. However, the actor moved on quickly and got into the critics’ graces once he landed an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor for his role in Lost in Translation. Since then, he played in other movies like Broken Flowers, Rushmore, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou and Moonrise Kingdom.
