Biography of Patrick McGoohan

Patrick McGoohan was an Irish and British actor of American descent, with an extensive list of works on stage and screen.

Born on March 19, 1928, in Queens, New York, McGoohan's parents were Irish immigrants who had come to the United States in search of a better life. However, the family returned to their homeland when Patrick was very young, and then moved to Sheffield, England, where he acquired a soft neutral accent that sounded equally native in both Britain and the States.

Early Life and Career

In Sheffield, Patrick attended St Vincent School, but during the start of World War II, children were evacuated to Loughborough, Leicestershire, where he completed his education at Ratcliffe College and excelled in mathematics and boxing.
