Steve McQueen – America’s Favorite Star

Hollywood’s “King Of Cool” during the 60s and 70s, Steve McQueen was a cut above and a heavy influence on the action stars of today. An accomplished road racer, he often performed dangerous car and motorcycle stunts in what are now classic action scenes from movies like Bullit and The Great Escape.

His off-screen life was equally exciting from his marriage to America’s then Sweetheart, Love Story’s Ali McGraw, to his games of chicken with LA’s Finest as he raced his Ferrari Berlinetta down Sunset Boulevard from Hollywood to his home in Malibu.

At the peak of his career he was the highest paid actor in the world.
